  Currently, single image inpainting has achieved promising results based on
deep convolutional neural networks. However, inpainting on stereo images with
missing regions has not been explored thoroughly, which is also a significant
but different problem. One crucial requirement for stereo image inpainting is
stereo consistency. To achieve it, we propose an Iterative Geometry-Aware Cross
Guidance Network (IGGNet). The IGGNet contains two key ingredients, i.e., a
Geometry-Aware Attention (GAA) module and an Iterative Cross Guidance (ICG)
strategy. The GAA module relies on the epipolar geometry cues and learns the
geometry-aware guidance from one view to another, which is beneficial to make
the corresponding regions in two views consistent. However, learning guidance
from co-existing missing regions is challenging. To address this issue, the ICG
strategy is proposed, which can alternately narrow down the missing regions of
the two views in an iterative manner. Experimental results demonstrate that our
proposed network outperforms the latest stereo image inpainting model and
state-of-the-art single image inpainting models.
