Peter Vajda, Ivan Ivanov, Lutz Goldmann, Touradj EbrahimiAbstract
Sharing photos with friends and family online has become very popular in recent years. People usually organize their shared photos in albums according to events or places. To tell the story of some important events in one's life, it is desirable to have an efficient summarization tool which can help people to get a quick overview of an album containing a huge number of photos. In this paper, we present an approach for photo album summarization through a novel social game Epitome. This application provides an intuitive user interface as a web and mobile application and creates photo collages for Facebook photo albums. Therefore, its potential users can enjoy watching their friends' photos while playing it. As a result, the most representative photos of a user's photo album are determined which can be used as a collage or a cover photo. At the same time, our social game collects useful research data.
