Video inpainting using scene model and object tracking

The problem of automatic video restoration and object removal attract the attention of many researchers. In this paper we present a new framework for video inpainting. We consider the case when a camera motion is approximately parallel to the plane of image projection. The scene may consist of a stationary background with a moving foreground, both of which may require inpainting. Moving objects can move differently, but should not to change their size. A framework presented in this paper contains the following steps: moving objects identification, moving objects tracking and background/foreground segmentation, inpainting and, finally, a video rendering. Some results on test video sequence processing are presented
