First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- measuring at least one image characteristic of multiple images by analyzing content of the multiple images;
determining a sequence of the images in which each pair of consecutive images in the sequence has a similar region of the content according to the measured image characteristic; and
applying a transition effect for the pair of consecutive images to transition from a display of a first image of the pair to a display of a second image of the pair, the transition effect usable to implement a face-based transition effect between the pair of images when the similar region of content includes a face according to the measured image characteristic, the face-based transition effect applied to align the first image and the second image.

Abstract
A method, system, and computer-readable storage medium for performing content based transitions between images. Image content within each image of a set of images are analyzed to determine at least one respective characteristic metric for each image. A respective transition score for each pair of at least a subset of the images is determined with respect to each transition effect of a plurality of transition effects based on the at least one respective characteristic metric for each image. Transition effects implementing transitions between successive images for a sequence of the images are determined based on the transition scores. An indication of the determined transition effects is stored. The determined transition effects are useable to present the images in a slideshow or other image sequence presentation.

10. One or more computer-readable memory devices storing instructions thereon that are executable by a computing device to perform operations comprising:
-
measuring at least one image characteristic of at least two images by analyzing image content of the at least two images; detecting faces that are similar in the image content of the at least two images according to the measured image characteristic; and applying a face-based transition effect for a transition from a display of a first one of the images to a display of a second one of the images, the face-based transition effect applied effective to align, during the transition, similar faces detected in the at least two images. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
