Abstract
The research presents a system and an algorithm for producing comic-styled photo layout that includes layouting the photos on a page, cropping the photos and placing the speech bubbles onto the photo. The system is comprised of an authoring layer that allows the user to key-in the annotations easily and a layout generation layer that automatically lays outs the photos on papers of varying sizes. The algorithm employs different techniques that include: face detection, region of Interest (ROI) detection, speech bubble placement detection and Simulated Annealing. Distance between layouts is defined by the research as well as the objective function that optimizes the integrity, emphasis and unity of the set of photos provided by the user.
Three sets of data with two languages on two different paper sizes were explored as the test bed of this research. Six other market-available solutions were benchmarked against the presented thesis on the area of ease of use, clarity of the photo story, and the interesting-ness of the layout (how interesting the layout is).
