Abstract
A person-based digital photo clustering method, medium, and apparatus and a person-based digital photo albuming method, medium, and apparatus. The clustering method may include detecting a face area from photo data, extracting predetermined content-based face feature value information from the detected face area, obtaining person-based photo clustering hint information, and performing person-based clustering by applying photo clustering hint information to the extracted content-based face feature value information. The person-based digital photo albuming method may include generating photo description information for identifying at least a photo, generating albuming tool description information supporting person-based photo clustering and including at least a parameter for person-based photo clustering, performing photo albuming including person-based clustering by using at least photo description information and albuming tool description information, generating predetermined photo group description information from photo albumed data, and generating predetermined photo album information by using photo description information and photo group description information.
