(Before & after: inpainting (type removed))
"GREYCSTORATION is an image regularization algorithm which processes an image by locally removing small variations of pixel intensities while preserving significant global image features, such as sharp edges and corners. The most direct application of image regularization is denoising. By extension, it can also be used to inpaint or resize images."
The results of the resizing tool look a lot like Polaroid Time-Zero emulsion manipulations.
