Abstract

Described embodiments generally relate to a computer-implemented method for performing inpainting. The method includes accessing a first image; receiving a selected area of the first image; identifying a foreground area of the first image; generating a merged mask based on the union of the user selected area and the foreground area; performing an inpainting process on the area of the first image corresponding to the merged mask to generate a second image, being an inpainted image; generating a reduced mask based on the user selected area reduced by the foreground area; and combining the first image with the area of the second image corresponding to the reduced mask to produce an output image.
