Due to the convenience of digital photography, people often end up with multiple shots of the same scene with only slight variations. We propose an easy-to-use brush-and-drag interface, helping them to interactively explore and compare this type of photos on a tablet computer. First, we mark an area of interest on a photo with our finger(s). Next, our segmentation engine will automatically segment corresponding image elements among the photos, which we can then drag across a single screen to compare side-by-side. This can be followed by a series of simple finger gestures applied to the image elements (representing the photos) to rank, select favorites for sharing, or discard unwanted photos.
