FOREGROUND-AWARE IMAGE INPAINTING

Abstract:

In some embodiments, an image manipulation application receives an incomplete image that includes a hole area lacking image content. The image manipulation application applies a contour detection operation to the incomplete image to detect an incomplete contour of a foreground object in the incomplete image. The hole area prevents the contour detection operation from detecting a completed contour of the foreground object. The image manipulation application further applies a contour completion model to the incomplete contour and the incomplete image to generate the completed contour for the foreground object. Based on the completed contour and the incomplete image, the image manipulation application generates image content for the hole area to generate a completed image.
