Abstract :
Augmented Album is an application developed to demonstrate how user situations can be used to provide an easy-to-use and easy-to-remember interface for the management and retrieval of digital pictures that consist of both digital video clips and still images. In this system, contextual information such as the location, time, and user events, are captured when a picture is taken. It represents the meaning of the picture as well as its content information to some extent, and thus benefits us to retrieve image/video clips. At the same time, the contextual information could be used to achieve a more realistic organization of those pictures on a computer system
