PHOTO -ALBUM GENERATON FROM A PHOTO-COLLECTION BASED ON A SCENARIO AND ON THE STATISTICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE TYPES OF PHOTOS.

摘要

A method of making an image-based product (such as a photo-book or a photo-album) includes: providing an image collection having a plurality of digital images, each digital image having an image type; providing one or more image-type distributions (histograms), each image-type distribution corresponding to a theme (e.g. wedding event) and including a distribution of types related to the theme; automatically comparing the image types of the images in the collection to the image types in the image-type distribution and determining a match; selecting a group of images from the collection having a distribution of types specified by the determined matching image-type distribution. The method further includes assembling the images in the selected group of images into an image-based product.
