CONTENT-AWARE IMAGE RESIZING USING SUPERPIXELS

Illustrative embodiments of methods, machine-readable media, and computing devices that provide content-aware image resizing using superpixels are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method may include segmenting a machine-readable image file into a plurality of superpixels, where each of the plurality of superpixels corresponds to a plurality of pixels of the machine-readable image file. The method may also include selecting a target region in the machine-readable image file, where the target region includes the pixels corresponding to a seam of superpixels extending across a dimension of the machine-readable image file. The method may further include selecting a seam of pixels in the target region, where the seam of pixels extends across the dimension of the machine-readable image file, and resizing the machine-readable image file by removing or augmenting the seam of pixels.
