Maria linked me to this YouTube video presented at SigGraph. It uses a new algorithm to smart resize images. Instead of just cropping or scaling, the algorithm looks for parts of the image with the ‘least amount of energy’ and smartly clips those portions out as you resize the image. The result is simply amazing.. this is the future of web page resizing and image resizing in general. No wonder Adobe just hired this researcher!
Back in Boston this summer, were I was doing research, I submitted an abstract of my work to a Multiple Sclerosis conference in Prague. Well, I found out last month that my abstract was accepted!
I will be in Prague in October for about 5 days. Maria is also coming along for a vacation, so it should be a blast!
If you’ve been there before, then let me know of places to see.
Just got back from Bangalore, and guess what was waiting for me in my email? A message from the grad student I worked with from Summer 2003 through Spring 2004. My research work (building a database for the murine Notch gene pathway) has been published in Science. Granted, it’s a one paragraph blurb, but it’s still cool! Science is ranked 8th according to ISI Impact Factor.
