Abstract: Combining the DCT pyramid compression algorithm and the multi-patch optimal matching mechanism to improve the traditional PatchMatch image repair algorithm, using different algorithms to repair and compare the metallographic images with pollution characteristics. The results show that the improved PatchMatch algorithm greatly improves the repair speed and repair quality. The repaired images are more effective than other image repair algorithms, the internal texture details of the metallographic images are restored more accurately and delicately, and metallurgical images repair can solve the problems that conventional metallurgical image segmentation can not eliminate the big noise.

Key words: metallographic image, PatchMatch algorithm, image inpainting, big noise processing
