Content-aware tutorial recommendation

Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for generating tutorial recommendations to users of image editing applications, based on image content. A methodology implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes using neural networks configured to determine subject matter of a user provided image and to identify objects in the image. The method also includes selecting one or more proposed tutorials from a database of tutorials. The database is indexed by tutorial subject matter and tutorial object content, and the selection is based on a matching of the determined subject matter to the tutorial subject matter and a matching of the identified objects to the tutorial object content. The method further includes calculating an effectiveness score associated with each of the proposed tutorials, the effectiveness score based on application of the proposed tutorial to the image. The method further includes sorting the proposed tutorials for recommendation to the user based on the effectiveness scores.
