Abstract In order to select representative images from a large image set to construct an album, we propose a new album management method in a comic-like layout based on images classification. We mainly focus on three key problems: how to organize the input set of images reasonably; how to classify and select representative images rapidly and accurately according to the user intent; how to display the representative images clearly. For the first problem, we use the model organization idea of Quartet Analysis, analyzing the set of images by the multiple global features, and we realize the effective organization of the images through the construction of the categorization tree (C-tree). For the second problem, in order to express the user intent better, we perform fine classification by using active learning method based on the C-tree. Then we recommend representative images for the user to select. For the third problem, we display representative images in a compact comic-like layout with hierarchical ordering information. To enrich layout styles, we create a template library based on enumeration by comic layout rules and complete the template selection and automatic collage of the images based on the principle of presenting the maximum information content of the images to be displayed. Experiments demonstrate that our method can not only assist the user with album production but also involve users in the whole process of making an album.

四方分析和主动学习的定性照片拼贴

摘要 为了从大图像集中选择代表性图像构建相册，我们提出了一种基于图像分类的漫画式布局的新相册管理方法。我们主要关注三个关键问题：如何合理组织输入的图像集；如何根据用户意图快速准确地对代表性图像进行分类和选择；如何清楚地显示代表性图像。对于第一个问题，我们利用四重分析的模型组织思想，通过多个全局特征分析图像集，通过分类树（C-tree）的构建实现图像的有效组织。对于第二个问题，为了更好地表达用户意图，我们采用基于C-tree的主动学习方法进行精细分类。然后我们推荐有代表性的图片供用户选择。对于第三个问题，我们以紧凑的类似漫画的布局显示具有分层排序信息的代表性图像。为了丰富排版风格，我们根据漫画排版规则创建了一个基于枚举的模板库，本着最大限度呈现待显示图片信息内容的原则，完成图片的模板选择和自动拼贴。实验表明，我们的方法不仅可以帮助用户制作专辑，还可以让用户参与制作专辑的整个过程。我们根据漫画排版规则创建了一个基于枚举的模板库，本着最大限度呈现待显示图像信息量的原则，完成图像的模板选择和自动拼贴。实验表明，我们的方法不仅可以帮助用户制作专辑，还可以让用户参与制作专辑的整个过程。我们根据漫画排版规则创建了一个基于枚举的模板库，本着最大限度呈现待显示图像信息量的原则，完成图像的模板选择和自动拼贴。实验表明，我们的方法不仅可以帮助用户制作专辑，还可以让用户参与制作专辑的整个过程。
