Abstract
In this paper, we propose the auto correction technique of photography composition by which the eye line is concentrated and the stable image of the structure can be obtained in case the general user takes a picture. Because the general user photographs in most case without background knowledge about the composition of the photo, the subject location is not appropriate and the unstable composition is contrasted with the stable composition of pictures which the experts take. Therefore, we provide not the method processing the image after photographing, but he method presenting automatically the stable composition when the general users take a photograph. The proposed method analyze the subject through Saliency Map, Image Segmentation, Edge Detection, etc. and outputs the subject at the location where the stable composition can be comprised along with the guideline of the Rule of Thirds. The experimental result shows that the good composition was presented to the user automatically.
