Abstract

Taking a photo has become a part of our daily life. With the powerfulness and convenience of a smartphone, capturing what we see may have never been easier. However, taking good photos may not be always easy or intuitive for everyone. As numerous studies have shown that photo composition plays a very important role in making a good photo, in this study, we, therefore, propose to develop a photo-taking app to give a real-time suggestion through a scoring mechanism to guide a user to take a good photo. Due to the concern of real-time performance, only eight commonly used composition rules are adopted in our system, and several detailed evaluations have been conducted to prove the effectiveness of our system.
