image restoration

Fixing damaged pictures

Image restoration is the process of recovering or reconstructing a degraded image—removing blur, noise, scratches, or other damage to approximate the original.

The term applies both to digital techniques that correct corrupted photographs and to physical conservation of deteriorating artworks or historical images: The software's image restoration tools removed decades of water damage from the old family photos.
