ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of the present invention relates to a system for reconstructing an image. During operation, the system receives an original image, wherein the original image includes a defective area to be reconstructed. The system also receives a reference to a texture image, which contains a texture to be used during the reconstruction. The system then divides the values of pixels in the defective area and surrounding boundary pixels, by the values of corresponding pixels in the texture image to produce a first intermediate image. Next, the system solves a partial differential equation (PDE) for non-boundary pixels in the first intermediate image subject to values of the boundary pixels in the first intermediate image to produce a second intermediate image. The system then multiplies the values of pixels in the second intermediate image by the values of corresponding pixels in the texture image to produce a replacement image. Finally, the system substitutes the replacement image into the defective area of the original image.
