Highly corrupted image inpainting through hypoelliptic diffusion
We present a new image inpainting algorithm, the Averaging and Hypoelliptic
Evolution (AHE) algorithm, inspired by the one presented in [SIAM J. Imaging
Sci., vol. 7, no. 2, pp. 669--695, 2014] and based upon a semi-discrete
variation of the Citti-Petitot-Sarti model of the primary visual cortex V1. The
AHE algorithm is based on a suitable combination of sub-Riemannian hypoelliptic
diffusion and ad-hoc local averaging techniques. In particular, we focus on
reconstructing highly corrupted images (i.e. where more than the 80% of the
image is missing), for which we obtain reconstructions comparable with the
state-of-the-art.Comment: 15 pages, 10 figure
