Fast Video Completion using patch based synthesis and image registration
Video completion has many applications in movie post production, such as removing unwanted objects, artifacts, or logos. Most state of the art video completion techniques are time consuming in order to ensure spatial temporal coherence. This paper presents a Fast Video Completion (FVC) technique that is based on patch based synthesis and image registration. FVC generates key frames without the unwanted objects over the input video using a patch based synthesis. The rest of the video completion process requires a low computing time using the registered prior frame. The results of the proposed technique show that FVC preserves the spatial temporal coherence in an acceptable time, that makes the proposed technique is applicable for long videos.
