Patch based inpainting method based on the F1-transform

We propose to solve the problem of image inpainting with the technique of the F-transforms, especially of the zero and first degrees. We are focused on the so called patch inpainting. The proposed technique creates a feature vector of an image characterizing weighted average levels of the corresponding intensity function and its partial derivatives over certain areas. The results of the proposed algorithm are demonstrated on various patch sizes and the issue of a reconstruction quality is discussed.
