  • Patent number: 7574069
    Abstract: A method retargets an image to a different size. An input image is segmented into regions. Selected regions are cut from the input image to construct a background image. The background image is scaled to a predetermined size, and the selected regions are pasted back into the scaled background image to produce an output image.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 1, 2005
    Date of Patent: August 11, 2009
    Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, Inc.
    Inventors: Vidya Setlur, Michael Gleicher, Bruce Gooch, Saeko Takagi, Ramesh Raskar
