Reconstruct Image Region from Region Neighborhood

inpaint reconstructs the selected image area from the pixel near the area boundary. The function may be used to remove dust and scratches from a scanned photo, or to remove undesirable objects from still images or videos.

inpaint(image, mask, radius = 5, method = "NS")

Arguments

image	An `Image` object.
mask	An 8-bit single-channel `Image` object. The region to be reconstructed should be white.
radius	Radius of the circular neighborhood of each point inpainted that is considered by the algorithm (default: 5).
method	The inpainting method to be used. It can only be one of the following: "NS": Navier-Stokes based method (the default). "Telea": Alexandru Telea's method.

Value

An Image object.
