Remote sensing image (RSI) inpainting plays an important role in real applications. Recently, fully-connected tensor network (FCTN) decomposition has been shown the remarkable ability to fully characterize the global correlation. Considering the global correlation and the nonlocal self-similarity (NSS) of RSIs, this paper introduces the FCTN decomposition to the whole RSI and its NSS groups, and proposes a novel nonlocal patch-based FCTN (NL-FCTN) decomposition for RSI inpainting. Different from other nonlocal patch-based methods, the NL-FCTN decomposition-based method, which increases tensor order by stacking similar small-sized patches to NSS groups, cleverly leverages the remarkable ability of FCTN decomposition to deal with higher-order tensors. Besides, we propose an efficient proximal alternating minimization-based algorithm to solve the proposed NL-FCTN decomposition-based model with a theoretical convergence guarantee. Extensive experiments on RSIs demonstrate that the proposed method achieves the state-of-the-art inpainting performance in all compared methods.
