Abstract

A system and method are disclosed for image selection based on photographic style in which photographic style annotations are learned using a data-driven approach. The method includes assigning a style value for each of a set of photographic style categories to each of a set of database images with a trained classifier of a computing device. A user's selection of a subset of the photographic style categories, such as three style categories, is received. A user interface is generated for assigning values to each of the selected photographic style categories. A set of database images is identified, based on the assigned values for each of the selected photographic style categories and the style values for each of the selected photographic style categories of the database images.
