Abstract/Artist's Statement
The purpose of this project is to implement and explore the use of seam carving — a tool used to select and remove “seams” of low-importance pixels from an image in order to reduce its height or width. I also cover the process of seam insertion, creating new seams of pixels to increase the image’s size rather than reducing it. Using these content-aware algorithms, I investigate the process of intelligently resizing an image. Using edge detection, dynamic programming, and pixel manipulation, I push the limits of seam carving and attempt to quantify the qualitative concept of salience.
