Content-Aware Image Resizing Based on Color

Abstract&mdash Image resizing is an important and useful operator
in lots of applications such as dynamic change in the layout of
web pages and transferring them to devices with different display
resolutions. Resizing images effectively could not be achieved by
use of simple geometric operators since they do not take content
of the images into account and will resize any part of the image
equally. A more intelligent resizing method must consider content
of the image which tries to keep more important pixels in the
resizing process. In this paper different approaches for content
aware image resizing have been studied and two novel color
based methods that improve this operator have been proposed.
The results show that the important parts of the images kept
more intact using these methods.
