A computing system, composed of a series or set of algorithms which are relevant to either the layout or composition of a photomontage, is applied to a plurality of images. This system can be operated either by a human user specifying placement and location of a plurality of digital images, called an image set, onto a specified output size or the system itself acts to generate, through a series of placement and compositional steps, the montage onto the specified output size. The system can be operated in either mode at any point through the operation as specified by the user. In the fully automated system the image analysis algorithms and the resulting information is placed within the appropriate vector in a data array of the system and henceforward available to the system of the invention for evaluation of the montage score once the generation of the montage is complete. The evaluation of the overall resulting multi-image montage with the same image analysis algorithms is then used to determine the fitness of the resultant montage and the fitness is then compared with the objective or target function for the desired montage.
