Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes accessing, by a crawling module, a first structured document from an external server, where the first structured document is associated with a first post by a third-party content provider and includes multiple image objects and information associated with the image objects, extracting from the first structured document a sub-set of image objects and information associated with each of the image objects, analyzing the extracted image objects and information to identify categories of image objects based on their features, selecting a first category of image objects that has a highest number of image objects compared to a number of image objects in each other category of image objects, and generating a second post including a multi-image display that includes two or more of the image objects from the first category of image objects.
