TL;DR: In this article, seam carving is used for content-aware image resizing for both reduction and expansion, where an optimal 8-connected path of pixels on a single image from top to bottom, or left to right, where optimality is defined by an image energy function.
Abstract: Effective resizing of images should not only use geometric constraints, but consider the image content as well We present a simple image operator called seam carving that supports content-aware image resizing for both reduction and expansion A seam is an optimal 8-connected path of pixels on a single image from top to bottom, or left to right, where optimality is defined by an image energy function By repeatedly carving out or inserting seams in one direction we can change the aspect ratio of an image By applying these operators in both directions we can retarget the image to a new size The selection and order of seams protect the content of the image, as defined by the energy function Seam carving can also be used for image content enhancement and object removal We support various visual saliency measures for defining the energy of an image, and can also include user input to guide the process By storing the order of seams in an image we create multi-size images, that are able to continuously change in real time to fit a given size

TL;DR: The file carving problem is analyzed, arguing that rapid, accurate carving is best performed by a multi-tier decision problem that seeks to quickly validate or discard candidate byte strings from the media to be carved.

TL;DR: The proposed approach allows for adaptive drainage enforcement whereby river networks coming from other data sources are imposed to the digital elevation model only in places where the automatic river network extraction deviates substantially from the known networks.
Abstract: [1] An effective and widely used method for removing spurious pits in digital elevation models consists of filling them until they overflow. However, this method sometimes creates large flat regions which in turn pose a problem for the determination of accurate flow directions. In this study, we propose to suppress each pit by creating a descending path from it to the nearest point having a lower elevation value. This is achieved by carving, i.e., lowering, the terrain elevations along the detected path. Carving paths are identified through a flooding simulation starting from the river outlets. The proposed approach allows for adaptive drainage enforcement whereby river networks coming from other data sources are imposed to the digital elevation model only in places where the automatic river network extraction deviates substantially from the known networks. An improvement to methods for routing flow over flat regions is also introduced. Detailed results are presented over test areas of the Danube basin.
