Details A method for removing film scratches in old video is
proposed. This method is realized as combination of spaciotemporal
exemplar-based inpainting and directional median
filtering. The spacio-temporal inpainting restores scratch areas
with image pixels in a similar undamaged image area in the same
and the adjacent frames. If such a similar image area exist, the
inpainting method works effectively, however, it does not always
exist. In this paper, a method to switch the spacio-temporal
inpaiting and a directional median filter is proposed to remove
film scratches.
