We propose a technique that allows a person to design a new photograph
with substantially less effort. This paper presents a method that generates a composite image when a user types
in nouns, such as “boat” and “sand.” The artist can optionally design an intended image by specifying other
constraints. Our algorithm formulates the constraints as queries to search an automatically annotated image
database. The desired photograph, not a collage, is then synthesized using graph-cut optimization, optionally
allowing for further user interaction to edit or choose among alternative generated photos. An implementation of
our approach, shown in the associated video, demonstrates our contributions of (1) a method for creating specific
images with minimal human effort, and (2) a combined algorithm for automatically building an image library with
semantic annotations from any photo collection.
