Abstract

Images are intelligently selected to create image narratives. Instead of a user having to manually search and locate images to view, the images to associate with a particular image narrative are programmatically determined. Many different types of image narratives may be created. For example, one image narrative may show images that include both a first user and a second user over some period of time. Another image narrative may show images that relate to an activity that a first user enjoys or an event that included the user (e.g., a graduation). The tags and metadata associated with the images of the user are analyzed to determine the tags that are important to the user. For example, the importance might be determined based on the frequency of the tags within the images. After creation, the user may select one of the image narratives to view the associated images.
