A user's collection of images may be analyzed to identify people's faces within the images, then create clusters of similar faces, where each of the clusters may represent a person. The clusters may be ranked in order of size to determine a relative importance of the associated person to the user. The ranking may be used in many social networking applications to filter and present content that may be of interest to the user. In one use scenario, the clusters may be used to identify images from a second user's image collection, where the identified images may be pertinent or interesting to the first user. The ranking may also be a function of user interactions with the images, as well as other input not related to the images. The ranking may be incrementally updated when new images are added to the user's collection. |
