Detection and Removal of Line Scratches in Motion Picture Films

Abstract

Line scratches are common degradations in motion picture films. This paper presents an efficient method for line scratches detection strengthened by a Kalman filter. A new interpolation technique, dealing with both low and high frequencies (i.e. film grain) around the line artifacts, is investigated to achieve a nearby invisible reconstruction of damaged areas. Our line scratches detection and removal techniques have been validated on several film sequences.
