Combined image plus depth seam carving for multiview 3D images
Multiview 3D displays have to multiplex a set of views on a single LCD panel. Due to this, each view has to be downsampled by a considerable amount leading to loss of details. In this paper, we extend the seam carving technique for adaptive resizing of images. It is proposed that the depth information be used along with the image pixel intensity values for resizing. This results in better resized multiview images. It is clear from the results presented that the object structure is maintained when the proposed method is used as compared to vanilla seam carving.
