Abstract
Techniques are described herein for selecting representative images for video items using a trained machine learning engine. A training set is fed to a machine learning engine. The training set includes, for each image in the training set, input parameter values and an externally-generated score. Once a machine learning model has been generated based on the training set, input parameters for unscored images are fed to the trained machine learning engine. Based on the machine learning model, the trained machine learning engine generates scores for the images. To select a representative image for a particular video item, candidate images for that particular video item may be ranked based on their scores, and the candidate image with the top score may be selected as the representative image for the video item.
