Aims at :
 restoring lost parts of videos and
reconstructing them based on the
background information and
spatial - temporal details.
 removal or replacement of
unwanted objects from frames
such that no distortion is observed
when video is played as a
sequence.
What is Video Inpainting?

a video frame

Video Inpainting as Video Forgery
 Video Inpainting can be used as a major forgery tool to perform malicious changes in
videos such as object removal .

6.
Research Motivation
 Video Inpainting forgery produces inpainted regions in video frames in a
visually plausible manner.
 Inpainting forgery is highly sophisticated and gets more difficult to detect
in comparison to other forgery types thus posing a challenging research
problem.
 Very few works have been proposed in the area of video inpainting
detection.
 Existing inpainting detection techniques fail to perform detection of latest
state-of-the-art inpainting techniques.

Research Aim
 To study and analyse the optical flow pattern in source and inpainted
videos .
 To present a robust technique for effective detection and localization of
inpainted regions in a given video sequence.
 To propose a single algorithm which detects multiple inpainting techniques.

Targeted Inpainting Techniques
14
 This algorithm performs on two variants of Temporal Copy Paste (TCP) inpainting.
They are as follows :
 Conventional TCP – one of the first and most popular inpainting techniques
proposed by Patwardhan et al [5] in 2007. Handles relatively simple motion
types in videos for inpainting.
 Complex TCP – one of the state-of-the-art inpainting techniques proposed by
Alasdair et al [6] in 2014. Handles relatively complex motions in videos to
performing inpainting.

Optical Flow
16
 Optical Flow (Of) characterizes
the motion of every pixel in one
image to its corresponding
location in next image[7].
 Performs motion estimation in
between video frames .
 It is best applied to video frames
as these are sequence of time
ordered images.

images of a person speaking . (c) Flow field

Markov Chain – feature extraction
 Each video VN divided into VN / k frames set
 Optical Flow Of of each frame set is modelled as firsst order spatial
Markov Chain
 Values in Of are rounded of to nearest integer values to get integer
value states and then truncated in between –Tr to +Tr before
extracting the transition probabilities .
25

26.
 Number of states to model a markov chain = (2Tr+1)
 For each matrix, number of Transition Probabilities = (2Tr+1) * (2Tr+1)
 TPM is constructed as :
where, u,v ϵ [-Tr , Tr] , and u,v ϵ Z.
Similarly, probabilities can be estimated for other directions.
 Perform SVM classification on above obtained TPMs.
