Seam Carving with Proportional Constraint
The Journal of The Institute of Image Information and Television Engineers, 2012 Seam carving (SC) is an image processing operator for content-aware image resizing, which enables users to shrink or enlarge pictures, while still retaining details of salient objects in the image. However, there is a problem that SC often generates obvious distortions on straight lines in the image.

Seam Carving for Enhancing Image Usability on Mobiles [PDF]
Electronic Workshops in Computing, 2008 In this paper we discuss a visual interface for presenting large images on small screen devices. We use the seam carving algorithm as an example technique to improve the readability of images, experimenting with it in various ways. We explain the results of a pilot study where we examined the use of seam carving algorithms on a small screen, making ...

Baseline row cleaners were adequate for high‐speed soybean planting into rye residue
Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Double cropping and cover cropping systems require efficient planting into crop residue. However, planting into residue can compromise seed placement and seed–soil contact, affecting crop establishment and yield. Row cleaners (RCs) address these challenges, but their efficacy depends on RC type, attachment configurations, residue quantity and ...

Similarity criterion for image resizing
EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2011 Based on bidirectional similarity measure between patches of image, in this study, we investigate the similarity criterion of image for resizing image. First, our scheme implements image resizing by Seam Carving step by step.

Characterization of Mass Wasting Events on Lunar Maria Using Mini‐RF Radar Observations
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Evidence of mass wasting has been observed on the Moon since at least the Apollo era. Surface features indicative of mass wasting processes are traditionally characterized geomorphologically using visible images. In this study, we aim to better understand mass wasting features via their radar properties, which can provide insights into the ...

‘Escaping Isn't for Everyone’: Kurdish Smugglers’ Navigational Tactics at Checkpoints in Iran
Development and Change, Volume 57, Issue 3, Page 578-598, May 2026.ABSTRACT This article examines how Kurdish smugglers navigate state and insurgent checkpoints in the borderlands of western Iran. Drawing on ethnographic research, it analyses two key navigational tactics: persin, a form of negotiated passage involving transaction, recognition and the contingent toleration of authority; and jimi, rendered here as ...

Studying the Zhuangzi: An Institutional Approach
Philosophy Compass, Volume 21, Issue 3, May/June 2026.ABSTRACT Comparative political philosophy has recently grown in prominence, but most attention focuses on Confucians such as Confucius, Mencius, and Xunzi. Daoists, particularly Zhuangzi, have long been neglected. This paper proposes an “institutional approach” to Zhuangzi's philosophy, examining what institutions can create a social environment that ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Rock glacier kinematics are indicators of alpine climate change, yet the relative influence of thermal and hydrological processes on their motion remains poorly constrained. This uncertainty limits our ability to predict how these permafrost landforms will respond to ongoing climate change.
