You can use the scripts in the src folder to create the images below.

python energy.py <input_file> <output_file> will give you the heatmap of the image.

python seam.py <input_file> <output_file> will give you the lowest energy seam in the image.

python carve.py <input_file> <num_iterations> <output_file> will remove <num_iterations> lowest vertical seams from the image.
