Content Aware Video Retargeting using Seam Carving

Abstract

Video retargeting method achieves high - quality resizing to arbitrary aspect ratios for complex videos containing diverse camera and dynamic motions . Video retargeting from a full - resolution video to a lower resolution display will inevitably cause information loss. While retargeting the video the important contents must also be preserved. Seam carving works well for images without straight lines or regular patterns like landscape images but may cause distortions if used for images with straight lines. Our approach combines Seam Carving method along with Hough transform to preserve the origi nality of the video
