Abstract :
In this paper, we present a recommendation system for automatically recentering and cropping digital still pictures that exhibit capturing artefacts. Autoframing images not only yields better visual pictures but more importantly allows us to remove undesirable artefacts such as lens obstructions by fingers, cellphone straps, or back heads. We report on our real-time prototype system that is targeted to consumer digital still cameras
