Abstract

This paper presents a content aware video retargeting technique with the help of an RGB-D camera based on the detection of saliency objects. The content aware image resizing algorithm requires some energy terms to separate the main contents and the background. In this work, we use the scene depth information, gradient information, visual saliency and saliency object to create an image on the visual focus of the energy map. The experimental results show that the proposed approach performs well in terms of the resized quality.
