An Adaptive Browsing-Based Approach for Creating a Photographic Story

Pictures are often self-explanatory; they capture a moment in time. However, a single photo cannot represent the whole moment. The creation of photographic stories is a means to better preserve memories. Relying on the content-based and contextual metadata within digital photos we could assist users to explore their collection to create the stories with regard to their events and experiences. In this poster we propose a novel approach for supporting the self creation of stories with digital photographs. By incorporating an adaptive learning scheme to capture implicit user feedback, our approach supports content and context assisted browsing.
