Abstract

In one embodiment, a computer system identifies a user in one or more frames of a video file, accesses a data store for image attitudinal data associated with the user, ranks the one or more frames based on the image attitudinal data associated with the user, and presents one or more top ranked frames to the user.

Claims (47)

1. A method, by one or more computing devices, comprising:

accessing image data comprising a plurality of images;

analyzing at least some of the images to identify one or more social network objects;

for at least a first social network object of the one or more identified social network objects, wherein the first social network object is identified in one or more particular images of the images:

accessing a data store for image attitudinal data associated with the first social network object;

determining a value of the particular images based on the image attitudinal data associated with the first social network object; and

selecting at least one of the particular images based on the respective values of the particular images.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein for at least a first social network object of the one or more identified social network objects, wherein the first social network object is identified in one or more particular images of the images, further comprises:

presenting one or more selected images to the first social network object.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the presenting one or more selected images to the first social network object, further comprises:

constructing a structured document comprising one or more of the selected images; and

presenting the structured document to the first social network object.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein at least one selected image in the structured document further comprising a selectable link to a portion of the images, the portion including the at least one selected image.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

tagging at least one of the one or more identified social network objects to at least part of the image data.

6. A system comprising:

one or more processors; and

a memory coupled to the processors comprising instructions executable by the processors, the processors being operable when executing the instructions to:

access image data comprising a plurality of images;

analyze at least some of the images to identify one or more social network objects;

for at least a first social network object of the one or more identified social network objects, wherein the first social network object is identified in one or more particular images of the images;

access a data store for image attitudinal data associated with the first social network object;

determine a value of the particular images based on the image attitudinal data associated with the first social network object; and

select at least one of the particular images based on the respective values of the particular images.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein for at least a first social network object of the one or more identified social network objects, wherein the first social network object is identified in one or more particular images of the images, the processors are further operable when executing the instructions to:

present one or more selected images to the first social network object.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein to present one or more selected images to the first social network object, the processors are further operable when executing the instructions to:

construct a structured document comprising one or more of the selected images; and

present the structured document to the first social network object.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein at least one selected image in the structured document further comprising a selectable link to a portion of the images, the portion including the at least one selected image.

10. The system of claim 6 , wherein the processors are further operable when executing the instructions to:

tag at least one of the one or more identified social network objects to at least part of the image data.

11. One or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying software that is operable when executed to:

access image data comprising a plurality of images;

analyze at least some of the images to identify one or more social network objects;

for at least a first social network object of the one or more identified social network objects, wherein the first social network object is identified in one or more particular images of the images:

access a data store for image attitudinal data associated with the first social network object;

determine a value of the particular images based on the image attitudinal data associated with the first social network object; and

select at least one of the particular images based on the respective values of the particular images.

12. The media of claim 11 , wherein for at least a first social network object of the one or more identified social network objects, wherein the first social network object is identified in one or more particular images of the images, the software is further operable when executed to:

present one or more selected images to the first social network object.

13. The media of claim 12 , wherein to present one or more selected images to the first social network object, the software is further operable when executed to:

construct a structured document comprising one or more of the selected images; and

present the structured document to the first social network object.

14. The media of claim 13 , wherein at least one selected image in the structured document further comprising a selectable link to a portion of the images, the portion including the at least one selected image.

15. The media of claim 11 , wherein the software is further operable when executed to:

tag at least one of the one or more identified social network objects to at least part of the image data.
