    Abstract: Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for identification of a salient portion of an image. A system may receive user input identifying a search query for content from a client device. The system may determine a listing of images responsive to the search query from an image collection. The system may obtain one or more image crops for at least one image of the listing of images based on a saliency map of the at least one image. In one or more implementations, each of the one or more image crops indicates a salient region of a corresponding image. The system may provide a set of search results responsive to the search query to the client device. In one or more implementations, the set of search results includes the obtained one or more image crops in a prioritized listing of image crops.
