Abstract
In this paper, we propose novel photography recomposition method, which aims at transferring the photography composition of a reference image to an input image automatically. Without any user interaction, our approach first identifies the salient foreground objects or image regions of interest, and the recomposition is performed by solving a graph-matching based optimization task. With additional post-processing step to preserve the locality and boundary information of the recomposed visual components, we can solve the task of photography recomposition without the uses of any prior knowledge on photography or predetermined image aesthetics rules. Experiments on a variety of images, including transferring the photography composition from real photos, sketches or even paintings, would confirm the effectiveness of our proposed method.
