Facial image inpainting, with high-fidelity preservation for image realism, is a very challenging task. This is due to the subtle texture in key facial features (component) that are not easily transferable. Many image inpainting techniques have been proposed with outstanding capabilities and high quantitative performances recorded. However, with facial inpainting, the features are more conspicuous and the visual quality of the blended inpainted regions are more important qualitatively. Based on these facts, we design a foreground-guided facial inpainting framework that can extract and generate facial features using convolutional neural network layers. It introduces the use of foreground segmentation masks to preserve the fidelity. Specifically, we propose a new loss function with semantic capability reasoning of facial expressions, natural and unnatural features (make-up). We conduct our experiments using the CelebA-HQ dataset, segmentation masks from CelebAMask-HQ (for foreground guidance) and Quick Draw Mask (for missing regions). Our proposed method achieved comparable quantitative results when compare to the state of the art but qualitatively, it demonstrated high-fidelity preservation of facial components.

We consider the problem of filling in missing spatio-temporal regions of a video. We provide a novel flow-based solution by introducing a generative model of images in relation to the scene (without missing regions) and mappings from the scene to ima
ges. We use the model to jointly infer the scene template, a 2D representation of the scene, and the mappings. This ensures consistency of the frame-to-frame flows generated to the underlying scene, reducing geometric distortions in flow based inpainting. The template is mapped to the missing regions in the video by a new L2-L1 interpolation scheme, creating crisp inpaintings and reducing common blur and distortion artifacts. We show on two benchmark datasets that our approach out-performs state-of-the-art quantitatively and in user studies.
Recovering badly damaged face images is a useful yet challenging task, especially in extreme cases where the masked or damaged region is very large. One of the major challenges is the ability of the system to generalize on faces outside the training
dataset. We propose to tackle this extreme inpainting task with a conditional Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) that utilizes structural information, such as edges, as a prior condition. Edge information can be obtained from the partially masked image and a structurally similar image or a hand drawing. In our proposed conditional GAN, we pass the conditional input in every layer of the encoder while maintaining consistency in the distributions between the learned weights and the incoming conditional input. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method with badly damaged face examples.
Image inpainting task requires filling the corrupted image with contents coherent with the context. This research field has achieved promising progress by using neural image inpainting methods. Nevertheless, there is still a critical challenge in gue
ssing the missed content with only the context pixels. The goal of this paper is to fill the semantic information in corrupted images according to the provided descriptive text. Unique from existing text-guided image generation works, the inpainting models are required to compare the semantic content of the given text and the remaining part of the image, then find out the semantic content that should be filled for missing part. To fulfill such a task, we propose a novel inpainting model named Text-Guided Dual Attention Inpainting Network (TDANet). Firstly, a dual multimodal attention mechanism is designed to extract the explicit semantic information about the corrupted regions, which is done by comparing the descriptive text and complementary image areas through reciprocal attention. Secondly, an image-text matching loss is applied to maximize the semantic similarity of the generated image and the text. Experiments are conducted on two open datasets. Results show that the proposed TDANet model reaches new state-of-the-art on both quantitative and qualitative measures. Result analysis suggests that the generated images are consistent with the guidance text, enabling the generation of various results by providing different descriptions.

Existing image inpainting methods often produce artifacts when dealing with large holes in real applications. To address this challenge, we propose an iterative inpainting method with a feedback mechanism. Specifically, we introduce a deep generative
model which not only outputs an inpainting result but also a corresponding confidence map. Using this map as feedback, it progressively fills the hole by trusting only high-confidence pixels inside the hole at each iteration and focuses on the remaining pixels in the next iteration. As it reuses partial predictions from the previous iterations as known pixels, this process gradually improves the result. In addition, we propose a guided upsampling network to enable generation of high-resolution inpainting results. We achieve this by extending the Contextual Attention module to borrow high-resolution feature patches in the input image. Furthermore, to mimic real object removal scenarios, we collect a large object mask dataset and synthesize more realistic training data that better simulates user inputs. Experiments show that our method significantly outperforms existing methods in both quantitative and qualitative evaluations.

The state-of-the-art facial image inpainting methods achieved promising results but face realism preservation remains a challenge. This is due to limitations such as; failures in preserving edges and blurry artefacts. To overcome these limitations, w
e propose a Symmetric Skip Connection Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Network (S-WGAN) for high-resolution facial image inpainting. The architecture is an encoder-decoder with convolutional blocks, linked by skip connections. The encoder is a feature extractor that captures data abstractions of an input image to learn an end-to-end mapping from an input (binary masked image) to the ground-truth. The decoder uses learned abstractions to reconstruct the image. With skip connections, S-WGAN transfers image details to the decoder. Additionally, we propose a Wasserstein-Perceptual loss function to preserve colour and maintain realism on a reconstructed image. We evaluate our method and the state-of-the-art methods on CelebA-HQ dataset. Our results show S-WGAN produces sharper and more realistic images when visually compared with other methods. The quantitative measures show our proposed S-WGAN achieves the best Structure Similarity Index Measure (SSIM) of 0.94.
