Heritage sites across the world have witnessed a number of natural
calamities, sabotage and damage from visitors, resulting in their
present ruined condition. Many sites are now restricted to reduce
the risk of further damage. Yet these masterpieces are significant
cultural icons and critical markers of past civilizations that
future generations need to see. A digitally reconstructed heritage
site could diminish further harm by using immersive navigation or
walkthrough systems for virtual environments. An exciting key
element for the viewer is observing fine details of the historic
work and viewing monuments in their undamaged form. This book
presents image super-resolution methods and techniques for
automatically detecting and inpainting damaged regions in heritage
monuments, in order to provide an enhanced visual experience. The
book presents techniques to obtain higher resolution photographs of
the digitally reconstructed monuments, and the resulting images can
serve as input to immersive walkthrough systems. It begins with the
discussion of two novel techniques for image super-resolution and
an approach for inpainting a user-supplied region in the given
image, followed by a technique to simultaneously perform
super-resolution and inpainting of given missing regions. It then
introduces a method for automatically detecting and repairing the
damage to dominant facial regions in statues, followed by a few
approaches for automatic crack repair in images of heritage scenes.
This book is a giant step toward ensuring that the iconic sites of
our past are always available, and will never be truly lost.
