I remember one episode in Star-Trek The Next Generation where they had a picture of some guy with more than half of his face covered by someone else.
The computer restored the full face by reconstructing it in "3D".

Sounded like treknobabble gibberish back in 1994, but it seems that we're getting closer and closer to such abilities.

Our brains can recognize things by seeing only (small) parts of them, filling the rest with imagination, why wouldn't computers be able to do the same ?
One step further to Strong AI.

If you use artificial white noise on each of RGB channels of image, it is not that hard to reverse it.
