Algo for :These days we have a huge collection of photos for any occasion taken from digital cameras and mobile phones. The old saying 'a picture is worth a thousand words' is very true with this: an event can be more appropriately described by seeing these pictures rather than describing it with hundreds of lines. Think of any event: a birthday party, a tennis match, a picnic trip…you name it. There will be hundreds of photos. Some photos will be very similar as people click two-three photos (one more-one more), photos taken during different times of the whole event etc. The task is to describe the event completely by taking minimum number of the photos from all the available photos of the event. For example if there are 200 photos of an event you need to select, say, 50 photos which will describe the whole event. A person needs to simply go through the 50 photos and understand what the event was about and what happened in that event. Propose an algorithm to do this automatically.
