ABSTRACT:
Certain embodiments of the present invention provide methods and systems for correcting new images using example image sets, automatically or with user interaction, to produce corrected images in a manner that can be adapted to individual preferences, different image object orientations, image illumination conditions, and/or human and non-human features. In one embodiment, example image sets are provided that include information. The information can include a corrected example image, an original example image, and an example image mask. The example image mask includes information regarding the pixels corrected in the corrected example image. A new image is received that includes a defective area that needs to be corrected. The new image can be corrected using the information associated with the example image set.
