1. Interactive Video Object Manipulation

This short video demonstrates advanced image editing techniques made possible by a new algorithm we have developed for quickly finding good matches between all parts (patches) of two different image regions.

The project is a collaboration between Adobe, Princeton University, and the University of Washington. We will present it in the technical papers session at SIGGRAPH '09 in New Orleans this August. You can find more information (including a PDF of the paper and the full video with more background and technical details) at

Enjoy!

I can't believe there aren't more comments on this. This is huge! I thought it was a hoax at first. Amazing amazing stuff.

any idea of when it will be implemented? standalone or through Photoshop?

hopefully they bring something similar for after effects too!

This may be "stretching" the limits but could these algorithms be extended to video as well (at least in theory)?
Eli Shechtman 15 days ago

In principle yes and we are thinking about this... It's just that it will probably not be so fast as with images, simply because in video one typically has many more pixels (patches) to synthesize and the search space is much larger.
I have done previously some work on video completion - wisdom.weizmann.ac.il/~vision/VideoCompletion.html
and video summarization - wisdom.weizmann.ac.il/~vision/VisualSummary.html
and I can tell you that these methods were VERY SLOW using previous search algorithms (I am talking about hours for tiny videos).
Using video PatchMatch I imagine it could be reduced to be just SLOW :)

NICE! Thanks for sharing.
