EnjoyPhoto - A Vertical Image Search Engine for Enjoying High-Quality Photos

This paper proposes building a vertical image search engine called EnjoyPhoto that leverages rich metadata from various photo forum web sites to meet users' requirements for enjoying high-quality photos, which is virtually impossible in traditional image search engines. To solve the ranking problem when aggregating multiple photo forums, the paper proposes a novel rank fusion algorithm that uses duplicate photos to normalize rating scores. To further improve user experiences in enjoying photos, it designs an in-place image browsing interface, and compares it with several other interfaces in a user study. With rich metadata and rating information, more attractive user interfaces are enabled, including slideshow authoring and photo recommendations.
