Methods and apparatus for generating context-sensitive, co-salient thumbnails are described. Co-salient thumbnails may effectively convey more useful information than conventional thumbnails while using the same or similar display space. As such, co-salient thumbnails may make it easier for a user to locate a particular image in a large collection of similar images. In some embodiments, for each of a plurality of patches in a first image, an illustrative method may identify a corresponding similar patch in a second image based on one or more similarity measures. The method may then determine a distance from each of the plurality of patches to its corresponding similar patch and select a crop in the first image relative to the second image based on the determined distance. Optionally, the method may repeat these operations in the opposite direction to select a crop in the second image relative to the first image. |
