Abstract: Techniques are described for inpainting of image data with a missing region. In an embodiment, at each iteration, the process determines a corresponding missing boundary region of the missing region and generates a collection of boundary patches for the missing boundary region. Based on comparing a boundary patch from the collection to source patches from a known source region of image data, the process generates replacement patches for the missing boundary region. When a boundary pixel data unit corresponds to multiple replacement pixel data units from different replacement patches, the process aggregates the multiple replacement pixel data units to generate an updated boundary pixel data unit. In an embodiment, the process performs convolution using the updated and previously known region of the image data.

Abstract: According to implementations of the subject matter described herein, there is provided an image colorization solution. The solution includes determining a similarity between contents presented in a grayscale source image and a color reference image and determining a col or target image corresponding to the source image based on the similarity. Specifically, a first and a second sets of blocks similar and dissimilar to the reference image are determined based on the similarity; a first color for the first set of blocks is determined based on a color of corresponding blocks in the reference image; a second color for the second set of blocks is determined independently of the reference image. Through this solution, it is possible to provide user controllability and customized effects in colorization, and there is no strict requirement on correspondence between the color image and grayscale image, achieving more robustness to selection of color reference images.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for detecting and remediating compression artifacts in multimedia items. In example aspects, a machine learning model is trained on a dataset related to compression artifacts and non-compression artifacts. Input data may then be collected by a data collection module and provided to a pattern recognition module. The pattern recognition module may extract visual and audio features of the multimedia item and provide the extracted features to the trained machine learning model. The trained machine learning model may compare the extracted features to the model, and a confidence value may be generated. The confidence value may be compared to a confidence value threshold. If the confidence value is equal to or exceeds the confidence threshold, then the input data may be classified as containing at least one compression artifact. Remedial action may subsequently be applied (e.g., boosting the system with technical resources).
