In one embodiment, an image editing method, comprising: defining a region as a foreground object and a remaining region as background; applying an image warping process to a predefined object region, wherein a distortion to at least the remaining region occurs based on the image warping process applied to the predefined object region; responsive to the image warping process, determining a region to be repaired, the region to be repaired comprising a missing background; repairing the region to be repaired based on an inpainting process; and generating a repaired image by combining the predefined object region to which the image warping process is applied, one or more non-distorted regions, and the repaired region.

Image editing method and system

A method implemented in an image processing system for combining multi-exposure images comprises obtaining a plurality of images each having different exposure levels for a same scene. A merged weight map for at least one obtained image is constructed by determining at least one merged weight value for at least one pixel of each obtained image based on characteristics of the pixel, wherein the merged weight map comprises a weight map corresponding to the plurality of images. A Gaussian pyramid and a Laplacian pyramid of each obtained image are generated, and a Gaussian pyramid of the merged weight map is generated. A merged Gaussian pyramid and a merged Laplacian pyramid are generated based on the Gaussian pyramid of the merged weight map. An intermediate pyramid is generated based on the merged Laplacian pyramid, and a resultant image is constructed by blending the merged Gaussian pyramid with the intermediate pyramid.
