This study carves out a way to video coding that is motivated by the recent advancement in video inpainting. In the proposed video coding approach, the regions are mainly divided into two types namely, Local Motion Region and Global Motion Region. The regions are removed by using block based motion estimation in Local Motion Regions and the method of texture synthesis is used for obtaining the removed regions. Shearlet p- Laplacian based Partial Differential Equation (PDE) inpainting is carried out to recover the removed regions in Global Motion Regions. In both regions, Exemplar Selection (Region Removal) Process is based on the edges extracted from the input region. Wavelets like curvelets and contourlets are not very efficient when dealing with edges in multidimensional signals. In this study, a Discrete Shearlet Transform (DST) is used for edge detection. Using DST helps to improve the overall compression performance together with the Shearlet p-Laplacian based inpainting and texture synthesis Schemes. The Scheme has been integrated into H.264/AVC and achieves better bit rate saving.
