Relational display of images
A method and apparatus for displaying a plurality of secondary images based on image data of a primary image include displaying a primary image and a plurality of secondary images based on the image data of the primary image. Each of the plurality of secondary images is displayed having a size based on a relevance of each respective one of the plurality of secondary images to the primary image. The primary image can be selected from a plurality of images or a frame of a video. Subsets of secondary images can be displayed in clusters including images having content similar to particular content of the primary image.
1. A method comprising:
receiving user input identifying a primary image;
identifying a plurality of secondary images based on the primary image;
displaying the primary image; and
displaying the plurality of secondary images at a display size based on a relevance of each respective one of the plurality of secondary images to the primary image.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
displaying a subset of the plurality of secondary images clustered based on image data associated with each secondary image of the subset of the plurality of secondary images matching image data of the primary image.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:
removing an image from the subset of the plurality of secondary images in response to detecting a gesture associated with the image.
4. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:
displaying the subset of the plurality of secondary images declustered in response to detecting a gesture associated with the subset of the plurality of secondary images.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the displaying the primary image and the displaying of the plurality of secondary images is in response to detecting a gesture associated with the primary image.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the primary image is a frame of a video.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the primary image is displayed overlapping one of the plurality of secondary images according to cluster display rules.
8. An apparatus comprising:
a processor; and
a memory to store computer program instructions, the computer program instructions when executed on the processor cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving user input identifying a primary image;
identifying a plurality of secondary images based on the primary image;
displaying the primary image; and
displaying the plurality of secondary images at a display size based on a relevance of each respective one of the plurality of secondary images to the primary image.
9. The apparatus of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:
displaying a subset of the plurality of secondary images clustered based on image data associated with each secondary image of the subset of the plurality of secondary images matching image data of the primary image.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 , the operations further comprising:
removing an image from the subset of the plurality of secondary images in response to detecting a gesture associated with the image.
11. The apparatus of claim 9 , further comprising:
displaying the subset of the plurality of secondary images declustered in response to detecting a gesture associated with the subset of the plurality of secondary images.
12. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the displaying the primary image and the displaying of the plurality of secondary images is in response to detecting a gesture associated with the primary image.
13. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the primary image is a frame of a video.
14. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the primary image is displayed overlapping one of the plurality of secondary images according to cluster display rules.
15. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing computer program instructions, which, when executed on a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving user input identifying a primary image;
identifying a plurality of secondary images based on the primary image;
displaying the primary image; and
displaying the plurality of secondary images at a display size based on a relevance of each respective one of the plurality of secondary images to the primary image.
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:
displaying a subset of the plurality of secondary images clustered based on image data associated with each secondary image of the subset of the plurality of secondary images matching image data of the primary image.
17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , the operations further comprising:
removing an image from the subset of the plurality of secondary images in response to detecting a gesture associated with the image.
18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the displaying the primary image and the displaying of the plurality of secondary images is in response to detecting a gesture associated with the primary image.
19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the primary image is a frame of a video.
20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the primary image is displayed overlapping one of the plurality of secondary images according to cluster display rules.
