Automatic extraction and removing of linear objects in natural images

Abstract

In fieldes of commercial designs or simulations of scenes, it is often required to move or remove some indicated objects from natural images. Usually, a layout scanner is used for these operations, in which the operations are executed manually, so it takes much time. To decrease such operations, automatic extraction and paint system is useful. In the present paper, we propose a simple and fast method for automatic extraction of linear objectes, and show the experimental resultes applied to several natural images.
