  • my research

    My current research work is on identifying regions of attention from visual media (images and videos). One of the applications of this research is on retargeting or intelligently resizing the visual media in order to cater to a diverse set of display resolutions. My research is guided by Assoc. Prof. Deepu Rajan.
