Content-Aware Image Resizing

An anonymous reader writes "At the SIGGRAPH 2007 conference in San Diego, two Israeli professors, Shai Avidan and Ariel Shamir, have demonstrated a new method to shrink images. The method is called 'Seam Carving for Content-Aware Image Resizing' (PDF paper here) and it figures out which parts of an image are less significant. This makes it possible to change the aspect ratio of an image without making the content look skewed or stretched out. There is a video demonstration up on YouTube."

    Whoa, that guy is totally wrapped up with self importance. I can't wait until this program is out so I can get all his pictures and mess them up. Out of pure spite, mind you. I really don't see why he's taking it so hard. What a blow hard.

    Mod me as a troll, go ahead. I know you want to.
