We present Edge-aware Context Encoder (E-CE): an image inpainting model which takes scene structure and context into account. Unlike previous CE which predicts the missing regions using context from entire image, E-CE learns to recover the texture according to edge structures, attempting to avoid context blending across boundaries. In our approach, edges are extracted from the masked image, and completed by a full-convolutional network. The completed edge map together with the original masked image are then input into the modified CE network to predict the missing region. The experiments demonstrate that E-CE can generate images with better shapes and structures than CE.
