Hi,

You can create an ROI mask of the image, containing the texts to be removed using the Image Segmenter App.

1. Open the Image Segmenter App and load the image.
2. Select ‘Draw ROIs’ under the ‘ADD TO MASK’ menu, to draw an ROI having all the unwanted parts of the image.
3. Now, export the ROI mask to the MATLAB Workspace.

Now use the inpaintCoherent(Original Image, ROI Mask) command to obtain desired output.
