The purpose of this master thesis was to study different content-aware video retargeting techniques, concentrating on a generalization of seam carving for video. Focus have also been put on the possibility to combine different techniques to achieve better retargeting of both multi-shot video and single-shot video.
This also involved significant studies of automatic cut detection and different measures of video content. The work resulted in a prototype application for semi-automatic video retargeting, developed in Matlab.
Three different retargeting techniques, seam carving, automated pan & scan and subsampling using bi-cubic interpolation, have been implemented in the prototype. The techniques have been evaluated and compared to each other from a content preservation perspective and a perceived quality perspective.
