Couture is a fast implementation of the seam-carving algorithm with heavy use of vectorization such as SSE and AVX. It uses Boost.Simd internally.
GUI
The GUI need an image file as an input:
$ ./couture_gui test.jpg
CLI
The CLI takes a single argument, the input file
$ ./couture 4-in.txt
It will print the output on the standard output.
Note: The standard output (on Windows especially) is very slow. It is recommended to pipe the output of the program inside a file for maximum performance.
$ ./couture 4-in.txt > 4-out.txt
- Clang 4 or later
- GCC 5 or later
- CMake 3.4 or later
The code hasn't been tested on Windows but should work on Visual Studio 2015 and later, or Clang 5
Common
These are required for both the GUI and CLI
- Boost 1.60 or later
- Boost.Simd (included in the repo as a submodule)
Gui
- OpenCV 3 and later
$ git clone https://github.com/HippoBaro/couture.git --recursive
$ cd couture && mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
The procedure will be different on Windows as you have to generate the proper SLN files via CMake and then open the solution with Visual Studio to build the projects.
