Abstract
A mobile device uses an image-driven view management approach for annotating images in real-time. An image-based layout process used by the mobile device computes a saliency map and generates an edge map from a frame of a video stream. The saliency map may be further processed by applying thresholds to reduce the number of saliency levels. The saliency map and edge map are used together to determine a layout position of labels to be rendered over the video stream. The labels are displayed in the layout position until a change of orientation of the camera that exceeds a threshold is detected. Additionally, the representation of the label may be adjusted, e.g., based on a plurality of pixels bounded by an area that is coincident with a layout position for a label in the video frame.
