Abstract
We implement a new photo management system `Face Album' on mobile phones, which organizes photos by person identity, as is shown in Fig. 1. We automatically group faces into clusters to release user workload. Our system is composed of two pools: a certain pool with reliable clusters consisting of faces from same identity, and an uncertain pool containing faces that are lacking in evidence to be recognized. Constantly as new faces increase, the certain pool and uncertain pool work together to either assign new faces to existing clusters or discover new identities in the album. In addition, user interaction is introduced for some deviation corrections. Experiments indicate that our results are close to offline hierarchical clustering method while a subjective survey shows our photo management system is favored by users.
