Title: Breakthroughs in Image Resizing
Post by: MarkKay on September 01, 2007, 03:39:43 pm
I am wondering if anyone has seen this work as depicted in the video.  It is a program that uses a set of complex  algorithms for resizing images.  I am not sure how complex this might be to put into as a PS plug

One of the creators of the scene-carving algorithm works now for Adobe.

As an added bonus, the paper contains a photo taken by yours truly.

Eric,

Which page is yours on? I don't see one that I would describe as "waterfall".

Of course, I know that any photograph by someone named Eric must be a great photo.

Well that is suspicious that it is going to be something to look forward to

Yes, that's right! Page 4, Figure 5. It was my first visit to the Northern California coast and I had to visit.   A few months ago my former office-mate Ariel asked me for some images to try with some "new image resizing method" he and a colleague were working on. I didn't know at the time what a big splash it would make at SIGGRAPH. (Ariel is the 2nd author of the paper.)

Nice photo, Eric.

Although the seam-removal scheme seems quite nifty, I do prefer your original (at the top) to any of the three variants.
