Abstrakt: The purpose of video inpainting is to get a reasonable content from the video to fill in the missing region. Video is a continuous four-dimensional sequence in the temporal dimension. It's difficult to ensure the temporal continuity of video by inpaint video frames respectively along the time dimension. Video inpainting has gone from the traditional inpainting algorithm to the advanced learning based inpainting method. It has been able to inpainting for a variety of scenes. However, there are still unresolved questions in video inpainting, and video inpainting is still a challenging task. Existing works focused on fixing the problem of object removal in the video, and neglected the importance of inpainting the occlusion scene in the middle region. For the occlusion problem in the middle region, we propose a local and nonlocal optical flow video inpainting framework. First, according to the forward and backward directions of the reference frame and the sampling window, we divide the video into local and nonlocal frames, extract the local and nonlocal optical flow and feed them to the residual network for rough inpainting. Next, our approach extracts and completes the edges of the predicted flow. Finally, the composed optical flow field guides the propagation of pixels to inpaint the video content. Experimental results on DAVIS and YouTube-VOS datasets show that our method has significantly improved in terms of the image quality and optical flow quality compared with the state of the art.
