Abstract
Systems and methods according to the present invention provide techniques to automatically generate an object layout. Various candidate placement positions are evaluated by computing values associated with placing the object at the placement positions. Cost functions associated with contrast, saliency and/or sharpness can be used to evaluate the desirability of each candidate placement position.
