Explore the cutting-edge Large Mask Inpainting (LaMa) system for removing foreground objects from images, even when they cover substantial portions of the image. Learn about the innovative use of Fourier Convolutions to incorporate global information throughout the forward propagation, resulting in superior reconstruction of periodic structures with long-range consistency. Delve into the model architecture, Fourier convolution layers, loss function, and mask generation algorithm. Examine experimental results and gain insights from an exclusive interview with the paper's authors. Discover how LaMa overcomes challenges in inpainting large missing areas, complex geometric structures, and high-resolution images, outperforming previous state-of-the-art methods.
