ACTOR/PERSON CENTRIC AUTO THUMBNAIL

Approaches, techniques, and mechanisms are disclosed for generating thumbnails. According to one embodiment, a subset of images each depicting character face(s) is identified from a collection of images. An unsupervised learning method is applied to automatically cluster the subset of images into image clusters. Top image clusters are selected from the image clusters based at least in part on weighted scores of images clustered within the image clusters. Thumbnail(s) are generated from images in the top image clusters.
