Image Resizing by Seam Carving
that's some crazy stuff. And we hired one of the researchers, Shai Avidan, to be part of our special research group:

Hi,
If you are looking for a software to try out seam carving, take a look at http://www.thegedanken.com/retarget
The program that you can download there (for Windows and Linux, and free) is already highly optimized concerning speed, and apart from enlarging or decreasing image size you can also use masks to protect or delete certain parts of your image.
Have fun,
Irmgard
