Improving image inpainting quality by a new SVD-based decomposition

In this paper, we present a new algorithm for image inpainting using structure and texture information. Our image decomposition to texture and structure is accomplished by the SVD method in the primary step, and then an algorithm for texture inpainting is applied. At the next level, edge detection is used in target region related to inpainted texture component. The detected edges demonstrate border of different textures in the target region, and the boundary pixels are ignored from mask temporarily. The other target pixels should be primarily inpainted, and then border pixels would be filled subsequently. Experimental results of this algorithm show better consistency in comparison with state of the art methods.
