SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IDENTIFYING SALIENT IMAGES

Abstract:

Image information defining an image may be accessed. The image may include one or more salient objects. A saliency map may be generated based on the image information. The saliency map may include one or more regions corresponding to the one or more salient objects. The one or more regions may be characterized by different levels of intensity than other regions of the saliency map. One or more salient regions around the one or more salient objects may be identified based on the saliency map. A saliency metric for the image may be generated based on one or more of (1) sizes of the one or more salient regions; (2) an amount of the one or more salient regions; and/or (3) histograms within the one or more salient regions.
