Systems and methods for removing transient elements in images

Abstract:

Captured images of a scene may include depictions of objects moving within the scene. The portions of the images depicting the moving objects may be identified by aligning the images and analyzing the changes in pixel values of the aligned images. For the portion of the images depicting the moving objects, the pixels values may be replaced with mean, mode, and/or median values that approximate the value that would have been captured without the moving objects, and one or more image without the depiction of moving objects may be generated.
