Smart Photo Sticking

Smart photo sticking is a novel strategy to automatically arrange a collection of photos in a pleasant collage. The proposed approach improves previous solutions both considering a self-adaptive image cropping algorithm, exploiting visual and semantic information, and introducing an optimization process based on a genetic algorithm. Preliminary results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed strategy on a heterogeneous collection of non professional photos.
