We present a system for the removal of objects from videos. As input, the system only needs a user to draw a few strokes on the first frame, roughly delimiting the objects to be removed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first system allowing the semi-automatic removal of objects from videos with complex backgrounds. The key steps of our system are the following: after initialization, segmentation masks are first refined and then automatically propagated through the video. Missing regions are then synthesized using video inpainting techniques. Our system can deal with multiple, possibly crossing objects, with complex motions, and with dynamic textures. This results in a computational tool that can alleviate tedious manual operations for editing high-quality videos.

使用一些注释从复杂视频中删除对象

我们提出了一种用于从视频中删除对象的系统。作为输入，系统仅需要用户在第一帧上绘制一些笔划，从而大致划定要删除的对象。据我们所知，这是第一个允许半自动从具有复杂背景的视频中删除对象的系统。我们系统的关键步骤如下：初始化后，首先优化分割蒙版，然后在视频中自动传播。然后使用视频修复技术来合成丢失的区域。我们的系统可以处理多个，可能是交叉的对象，复杂的运动以及动态纹理。这产生了一种计算工具，可以减轻用于编辑高质量视频的繁琐的手动操作。
