Image inpainting benefits much from the future Internet, but the memory and computational cost in encoding image features in deep learning methods poses great challenges to this field. In this paper, we propose a parallel decoding structure based on GANs for image inpainting, which comprises a single encoding network and a parallel decoding network. By adding a diet parallel extended-decoder path for semantic inpainting (Diet-PEPSI) unit to the encoder network, we can employ a new rate-adaptive dilated convolutional layer to share the weights to dynamically generate feature maps by the given dilation rate, which can effectively decrease the number of convolutional layer parameters. For the decoding network composed of rough paths and inpainting paths, we propose the use of an improved CAM for reconstruction in the decoder that results in a smooth transition at the border of defective areas. For the discriminator, we substitute the local discriminator with a region ensemble discriminator, which can attack the restraint of only the recovering square, like areas for traditional methods with the robust training of a new loss function. The experiments on CelebA and CelebA-HQ verify the significance of the proposed method regarding both resource overhead and recovery performance. |
