Title:
IMAGE RESTORATION SYSTEM, IMAGE RESTORATION METHOD, AND IMAGE RESTORATION PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/061943
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A defect pixel value estimation means estimates a pixel value which each pixel in a defect region as a region to be restored in an image can have, on the basis of the pixel value of pixels in a non-defect region as a region in the image which does not include the defect region. A patch selection means selects, from pairs of patches including a defect patch as the image of a region which includes the defect region and a reference patch as the image of a region which does not include the defect region, a pair of patches in which the defect patch and the reference patch are most similar to each other. Further, on the basis of the relationship between the pixel value of the defect region which is estimated in the defect patch and the pixel value of the reference patch corresponding thereto, the patch selection means selects a pair of patches in which the image of the defect patch and the image of the reference patch are most similar to each other. An image restoration means restores the defect patch on the basis of the reference patch in the pair of patches selected.
