Detailed Documentation

A rapid image inpainting algorithm employing transport equations. This method utilizes local coherence transport within images to restore damaged areas by filling missing pixels. The core algorithmic approach involves analyzing structural and textural information while leveraging adjacent pixel relationships for reconstruction. Key implementation aspects include: - Coherence-directed isophote propagation to maintain edge continuity - Fast marching method for efficient pixel prioritization - Gradient-based guidance fields for structure preservation The algorithm effectively reconstructs corrupted or missing image regions, enhancing both completeness and visual quality. Its computational efficiency enables practical applications in photo restoration, object removal, and medical image processing. Performance optimization techniques include parallelization of transport operations and adaptive neighborhood sampling for texture synthesis.
