Description

Virtual restoration of stained glass windows addresses the following problem: given color photographs of a damaged window alongside grayscale images of the same window taken before the damage occurred, generate a colorized image representing the window as it would have appeared in its original state. This task combines image colorization and guided restoration, using the pre-damage grayscale as a structural reference and the surviving color regions as a color guide.
