To inpaint images in OpenCV, you need to use the cv2.inpaint function. It accepts four arguments:
- Image with defects: It has to be an 8-bit colorful or grayscale one
- Mask for defects: It has to be an 8-bit single channel one and be the same size as the image in the first argument
- Neighborhood radius: The size of the area around a damaged pixel, which should be used in computing its color
- Inpainting mode: Type of the algorithm of inpainting
Mask for defects should contain non-zero values for pixels on the original image, which need to be recovered. Neighborhood radius is a range of pixels around the algorithm that it considers during inpainting; it should have a small value to prevent dramatic blurring effects. Inpainting mode ...
