Abstract:
Embodiments relate to leveraging automated image understanding to foster user engagement with an image. An image viewer application is provided with image analysis algorithms that determine features of an image by identifying objects in the image, recognizing faces in the image, etc. Hotspots may be added to the display of the image at locations of the features. Contextual metadata such as data about a user, user activity, other images, etc. can be used to determine which features will be provided with hotspots and what information will be associated with the hotspots. In one embodiment, the information associated with a hotspot is another image, and interactive selection of the hotspot causes the image to be both displayed and processed for hotspot augmentation. Tools may be provided to modify or edit the image based on the features found via the image analysis.

Claim (Index 1):
A method performed by a computing device comprised of a display, processing hardware, and storage hardware, the method comprising:\n executing an application that accesses a set of images stored on the storage hardware and displays a user interface on the display, the user interface comprising an image display region that displays a rendering of a currently selected image selected from among the images in the set of images, wherein the currently selected image is the only image that is displayed in the image display region; providing the currently selected image to an image analysis module, the image analysis module recognizing objects in the currently selected image and determining locations of portions of the currently selected image that correspond to the objects, respectively; automatically selecting one of the objects, determining a class of the object, searching the set of images for images of the same class to find a related image, and adding a hotspot to the image according to the determined location of the portion of the image corresponding to the selected object, the hotspot comprising an interactive user interface element, wherein the hotspot is linked to the related image; and responding to a user input directed to the hotspot that activates the hotspot by, based on the hotspot link to the related image, setting the related image as the currently selected image which causes displaying of only the related image in the image display region.
