Abstract

Traditional image inpainting algorithms cannot accurately capture high-level semantics when regions involve complex non-repetitive structures, such as faces. In the past three years, the method based on deep learning has been applied to image inpainting, and the structural similarity of the repair results had increased by more than 10% compared with the traditional methods. This paper firstly expounded the research and development process of facial completion technologies, mainly introduced the face repair algorithm based on deep learning, which was divided into unsupervised and supervised categories. In each category, it focused on the various facial completion algorithm ideas that had emerged in recent years. Then it summarized the six mainstream types of image datasets. Two evaluation indexes were summarized in this paper. Finally, it discussed the future research direction of facial completion technique.
