Despite the higher video-completion quality that recently proposed methods have enabled for a wide variety of cases, their computational complexity remains a major concern. These methods typically frame video completion as an optimization problem over the whole spatiotemporal domain—a problem that is expensive to solve both in time and space. In this paper we propose a lighter-weight multipass video-completion pipeline that replaces global spatiotemporal optimization with simpler frame-by-frame motion reconstruction and refinement. We achieve a processing speed of 2.6 seconds per frame on Full HD content while delivering nearly state-of-the-art completion quality for a wide range of dynamic scenes captured using a free-moving camera. To validate the performance of our proposed method, we conducted a subjective comparison of different video-completion results for 26 test sequences from the DAVIS data set.
