Optimized Image Resizing using Piecewise Seam Carving
نویسندگان
چکیده
Seam Carving, the popular content aware image resizing technique removes seams of low energy iteratively without considering the global visual impact of the image. It is computation intensive. Sometimes seams unavoidable pass through the ROIs and distort their geometric shapes. The ROIs of low energy cannot sustain seam carving. We proposed a piecewise approach which can preserve the ROIs of low energy and minimize shape distortions. It can take advantage of parallel algorithms to improve speed. It is further optimized by using a saliency map to automatically identify the ROIs and segment the image, in addition with the interactive one. It is hybridized with a shift map editing approach to adjust structure deformations.

ABSTRACT When changing height and width of image traditional techniques for image resizing are oblivious to the content of image. A simple operator seam carving is used for image and video retargeting. This seam carving operator is used for content aware image resizing to reduce or expand image size. According to seam carving method every object in the image must be scaled down proportionally. ...

BACKGROUND A new image-resizing method using seam carving and a Saliency Strength Map (SSM) is proposed to preserve important contents, such as white blood cells included in blood cell images. METHODS To apply seam carving to cell images, a SSM is initially generated using a visual attention model and the structural properties of white blood cells are then used to create an energy map for sea...

In this paper we consider the problem of implementing and optimizing the Seam Carving algorithm on graphics processing units. Seam Carving is a content-aware image resizing method proposed by Avidan and Shamir. In order to use their proposed method in real-time application, a pre-processing step is needed. While some other papers propose real-time resizing by changing the original Seam Carving ...

Seam-Carving is widely used for content-aware image resizing. To cope with the digital image forgery caused by Seam-Carving, a new detecting algorithm based on Benford’s law is presented. The algorithm utilize the probabilities of the first digits of quantized DCT coefficients from individual AC modes to detect Seam-Carving images. The experimental result shows that the performance of proposed ...
