Abstract
Automatically surfacing content from media libraries can be highly useful, enabling users to effortlessly discover relevant contextual information and related data without having to perform manual searches. However, current methods usually require users to manually search for information, or rely on rigid rules that fail to capture the user's specific, current context. This disclosure describes techniques that automatically provide contextual information about media in a user’s library without requiring explicit prompts from the user. Media content items in a user’s gallery are weighted for their importance to the user. The metadata and content of an image (or other content item) are leveraged to identify interesting facts about the image. When the user views or dwells on the media content item, the retrieved information is surfaced in an unobtrusive manner.
