Methods of Creating and Displaying Images in a Dynamic Mosaic

摘要

A method of displaying a plurality of digital objects includes storing the plurality of objects in a database, associating fixed parameter metadata and dynamic metadata with each of the digital objects, and classifying each of the digital objects in the database based on at least one of the fixed parameter metadata and the dynamic metadata. A user search request is then received and a subset of requested objects is defined that correspond to the user search request. A relevancy value is computed for each of the subset of requested objects using the fixed parameter metadata and/or the dynamic metadata. The objects are then displayed on a user display such that the most relevant objects are presented to the user and less relevant objects are spaced from the most relevant object. The display maybe two- or three-dimensional and includes all relevant images in a single display.
