Summary


In this chapter, we learned about content-aware image resizing. We discussed how to quantify interesting and uninteresting regions in an image. We learned how to compute seams in an image and how to use dynamic programming to do it efficiently. We discussed how to use seam carving to reduce the width of an image, and how we can use the same logic to expand an image. We also learned how to remove an object from an image completely.

In the next chapter, we are going to discuss how to do shape analysis and image segmentation. We will see how to use those principles to find the exact boundaries of an object of interest in the image.
