METHOD FOR HIGH RESOLUTION IMAGE INPAINTING, PROCESSING SYSTEM AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT

A computer-implemented method for high resolution image inpainting comprising the following steps: providing a high resolution input image, providing at least one inpainting mask indicating at least one set of pixels to be removed and synthetized, selecting at least one rectangular sub- region of the input image and at least one aligned rectangular subregion of the inpainting mask such that the rectangular subregion of the input image encompasses at least one set of pixels to be removed and synthetized, said at least one sub-region of the input image and its corresponding aligned subregion of the inpainting mask having identical minimum possible size and a position for which a calculated information gain does not decrease, processing said sub-region of the input image and its corresponding aligned subregion of the inpainting mask by a machine learning model in such a manner that an inpainted sub-region of the input image along with at least one synthetized set of pixels fitting the surrounding parts of the in
