Image Inpainting is a task of reconstructing missing regions in an image. It is an important problem in computer vision and an essential functionality in many imaging and graphics applications, e.g. object removal, image restoration, manipulation, re-targeting, compositing, and image-based rendering.

In this paper, we show that, on the contrary, the structure of a generator network is sufficient to capture a great deal of low-level image statistics prior to any learning.

The edge generator hallucinates edges of the missing region (both regular and irregular) of the image, and the image completion network fills in the missing regions using hallucinated edges as a priori.
We present a novel image editing system that generates images as the user provides free-form mask, sketch and color as an input.
We propose to leverage periodic activation functions for implicit neural representations and demonstrate that these networks, dubbed sinusoidal representation networks or Sirens, are ideally suited for representing complex natural signals and their derivatives.
We present a generative image inpainting system to complete images with free-form mask and guidance.

Motivated by these observations, we propose a new deep generative model-based approach which can not only synthesize novel image structures but also explicitly utilize surrounding image features as references during network training to make better predictions.

By bringing together the best of both paradigms, we propose a new deep inpainting framework where texture generation is guided by a texture memory of patch samples extracted from unmasked regions.
In this paper, we propose a novel method for semantic image inpainting, which generates the missing content by conditioning on the available data.
Recent advances in deep learning have shown exciting promise in filling large holes in natural images with semantically plausible and context aware details, impacting fundamental image manipulation tasks such as object removal.
We propose (layer-wise) feature imputation of the missing input values to a convolution.
