© 2019 IEEE. Image retargeting is the technique to display images via devices with various aspect ratios and sizes. Traditional content-Aware retargeting methods rely on low-level features to predict pixel-wise importance and can hardly preserve both the structure lines and salient regions of the source image. To address this problem, we propose a novel adaptive image warping approach which integrates with deep convolutional neural network. In the proposed method, a visual importance map and a foreground mask map are generated by a pre-Trained network. The two maps and other constraints guide the warping process to yield retargeted results with less distortions. Extensive experiments in terms of visual quality and a user study are carried out on the widely used RetargetMe dataset. Experimental results show that our method outperforms current state-of-Art image retargeting methods.
