Abstract
A context aware clipping mask is described. Context aware clipping masks may provide an automated approach for creating clipping sets that generate aesthetically pleasing photo texts. In at least some implementations, an input image is analyzed to generate an image saliency map and an image gradient map. A plurality of image rects of varying sizes and aspect ratios are generated on a grid over the input image. A score is assigned to each image rect, incorporating a visual composition, a boundary simplicity based on the image gradient map, and a content preservation based on the image saliency map. An image rect with the highest score is selected and utilized to create a photo text from the input image.
