Abstract

Nowadays there are many different devices for displaying images. According to using images in different applications and various devices, displaying the images in different display size is vital and essential. Therefore it is very important to preserve content of images during resizing. In this paper, we present two different methods for content aware image resizing that combined with Seam carving algorithm and scaling. In both methods, at first the important regions of image are determined. After that Seam carving algorithm is used in these important regions and traditional scaling is applied for other regions. The proposed approaches are implemented and the experimental result shows that these methods are appropriate for various images especially in content images with many objects and edges.
