ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method are disclosed for context dependent cropping of a source image. The method includes identifying a context for the source image, identifying a visual class corresponding to the identified context from a set of visual classes, applying a class model to the source image to identify a candidate region of the image based on its relevance to the visual class, and identifying a subpart of the source image for cropping, based on the location of the candidate region.
