1. A computer implemented method of evaluating compositional quality of a layout orientation of an image, said method comprising:

  • receiving image saliency data for an image to be presented in a viewing region;

    receiving a layout orientation for presenting said image in said viewing region;

    receiving a composition template embodying an image composition rule, wherein said composition template is a grayscale map and wherein said composition template is not derived from said image;

    utilizing said image saliency data, said composition template, and summing values of a plurality of pixels of a weighted saliency distribution to determine a weighted occlusion cost for viewing said image using said layout orientation; and

    utilizing said weighted occlusion cost to determine a composition score indicating quality of said layout orientation with respect to said image composition rule.
