Abstract

How to effectively summarize a large-scale image collection is still an important and open problem. In this paper, we propose a novel method to effectively generate a summary of the social image collection using image attractiveness learned from the social behaviors conducted in Flickr. To this end, we exploit the note information of Flickr images. The notes of Flickr images are user generated bounding boxes with text annotations assigned on the interesting image regions. Using the visual features extracted from the images that have notes, we have generated the attractiveness models for various concepts. Finally, the attractiveness models are exploited to make a summary of the social image collection. Through various user studies on the image collections from Flickr groups, we show the feasibility of our method and discuss further directions.
