A Survey on Content-Aware Image and Video Retargeting.

This survey introduces the current state of the art in image and video retargeting and describes important ideas and technologies that have influenced the recent work. Retargeting is the process of adapting an image or video from one screen resolution to another to fit different displays, for example, when watching a wide screen movie on a normal television screen or a mobile device. As there has been considerable work done in this field already, this survey provides an overview of the techniques. It is meant to be a starting point for new research in the field. We include explanations of basic terms and operators, as well as the basic workflow of the different methods.
