Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new method for spatial-temporal error concealment in video coding using joint motion-image inpainting. The proposed method combines motion inpainting and adaptive Markov random field (MRF) based diffusion as robust motion inpainting. Image inpainting is employed to refine the result. With robust motion inpainting, effective compromise between temporal and spatial method is achieved for each point in the missing marcroblock (MB), which provides satisfactory visual quality of the restored frame with complex motion in video.
