Making Slide Shows with Zoomquilts

We present a novel method for generating a slide show, which takes as input a collection of images, and outputs a video consisting of these images, switching between images smoothly in a continuous zoom-like process: as the sequence plays, a miniature of the next image is embedded in the current image and enlarges until eventually replaces the current image. Color differences, texture similarity, image complexity, etc. are taken into account to measure the distance between two images. Based on this distance...
