Abstract

Inpainting is an accent art to modify an image in an artistic manner without
notice. Scientists have reinvented it in the information age by
means of mathematical models and computers. They have developed different
methods to solve this problem in various domains from static images
to dynamic videos. Their productions are amazing and comparable to
masterpieces. However, their processes are slow and provide no immediate
result. That is, the result can only be viewed after the completion of the
process. Therefore, this project is targeted to bring this slow process into an
interactive platform. This project is focused on static text, logos or geometry
shape on a moving video. It is assumed that these features have no color
change and are static on screen.
