Problems solved by technology

However, in these images, there will also be some removed objects, which will affect the quality of the formed panoramic image and bring regrets to people.
[0005] An existing method of removing objects in an image and repairing the image is manually by means of professional image processing software like Photoshop, which cannot be done automatically
In addition, on the one hand, these software are relatively expensive, on the other hand, users need a lot of training to be able to master the functions of these software

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for processing an image, used to remove a removed object in a target image and repair the target image. The method for processing the image comprises steps of defining a target area containing the removed object in the target image; extracting at least a sub area as an image from other images related with the target image stack, wherein all aforesaid other images a removed object different from a shooting view point of the target image; selecting pixels pf same position corresponding to the sub area from the image stack pixel by pixel based on theoptimization method to substitute pixels in the target area. Through the inventive method and device for processing images, a user can repair images so as to form ideal images while removing removed images from shot imaged to his delight.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to computer image processing, in particular to an image processing method and device, which can automatically remove objects such as occluders in a captured image, and repair a target image according to information in other images related to it. Background technique [0002] At present, digital cameras are increasingly popular, and users can record a large number of photos with digital cameras in daily life. [0003] For example, many travelers take many photos of a scenic spot from different perspectives during a trip, so as to leave good memories of the trip.

It is difficult for the user to remove the target area (the sub-area of ​​the image containing the removed object) from the image without leaving a visible trace. [0004] In addition, photo-sharing communities ...
