Abstract
The technical problem of removing an object depicted in a selected region of an image to create a natural-looking edited image is addressed by providing systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media to perform automatic image inpainting. The method includes replacing the selected region using a color mask. A color mask can be generated using a mean color of pixels from a portion of the image that is distinct from and outside of the selected region.
