Abstract
Structured scenario photos, referring to the images which capture important events that usually follow specific routines/structures (such as wedding ceremonies, graduation ceremonies, etc.), account for a significant proportion in personal photo collections. Conventional image analysis techniques without considering the event routines/structures are not sufficient to handle these photos. In this paper, we explore the appropriate framework to learn and utilize the specific routines for understanding these structure scenario photos. Specifically, we propose a novel framework which can systematically integrate Hidden Markov Model and Gaussian Mixture Model to recognize sub-events from structured scenario photos. Then we present a comprehensive criterion to select representative images to summarize the whole photo collection. Experimental results conducted on the real-world datasets demonstrate the superiority of our framework in both of sub-event recognition and photo summarization tasks.
