Yesterday I introduced my new project, MicroAgent, in my data mining class. I designed an algorithm to find relevant keywords, titles, descriptions, and categories for images according to only a few of keywords, and it works pretty well. I think this application would be very useful for all microstock photographers because in my experience, to submit photos to microstock agencies is always a time consuming mess, as we need to figure out what keywords, titles, descriptions, or categories would best fit our images, and further help us increase the selling rate.

MicroAgent is the perfect solution for you, anyone who want to add metadata to their images would benefit from MicroAgent. However, MicroAgent is still at early state because I’d like to add more useful features to it (auto submission, statistics, etc). So, it may take a while to publish an official release. In the mean time, any idea or suggestion would be welcomed. By the way, MicroAgent will be available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, so most people could take advantage of it. Just wait and see.
