Perceptual Distortion Metric for Stereo Video Quality Evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Stereo video is regarded as an important developing trend of video technology and there is an increasing need to develop efficient and perceptually consistent methods for stereo video quality evaluation in the fields of stereo video signal processing. In this paper, a perceptual metric for stereo video quality evaluation is proposed based on the state-of-the-art physiological and psychological achievements on human visual system (HVS). Several main HVS properties related to stereo video are analyzed and a multi-channel vision model based on 3D wavelet decomposition is proposed. Simulations are performed and experimental results reveal that, compared with the traditional objective metrics such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and mean squared error (MSE), the proposed metric is more perceptually consistent. Key-Words: -Human visual system, stereo video, image quality evaluation, 3D wavelet decomposition

New Stereo Video Quality Assessment Metric for Three Dimensional Video Systems
Since traditional two dimensional video quality metrics are not suitable for evaluating stereo video, a new stereo video quality metric based on support vector regression (SVR) for three dimensional video systems is proposed in this paper. Firstly, three factors affecting the quality of stereo video are analyzed, namely left-view video quality, right-view video quality and difference between tw...
متن کاملPerceptual quality evaluation of asymmetric stereo video coding for efficient 3D rate scaling
In 3D perception, the binocular suppression of the human vision, perceiving high quality 3D video in the case of a view in higher quality, can be exploited in asymmetric stereo video coding for efficient 3D rate scaling. Hence, the best stereo rate-visual distortion performance may be gained by asymmetric coding, which is the reduction of the spatial and/or quantization resolution of the low-qu...
متن کاملA Perceptual Distortion Metric for Digital Color Video
In this paper I present a distortion metric for color video sequences. It is based on a contrast gain control model of the human visual system that incorporates spatial and temporal aspects of vision as well as color perception. The model achieves a close fit to contrast sensitivity and contrast masking data from several different psychophysical experiments for both luminance and color stimuli....
متن کاملImage Quality Assessment Using Spatial Frequency Component
Image quality assessment (IQA) is a crucial technique in perceptual image/video coding, because it is not only a ruler for performance evaluation of coding algorithms but also a metric for ratio-distortion optimization in coding. In this paper, inspired by the fact that distortions of both global and local information influence the perceptual image quality, we propose a novel IQA method that in...
متن کاملVisual Perception Based Objective Stereo Image Quality Assessment for 3D Video Communication
Stereo image quality assessment is a crucial and challenging issue in 3D video communication. One of major difficulties is how to weigh binocular masking effect. In order to establish the assessment mode more in line with the human visual system, Watson model is adopted, which defines visibility threshold under no distortion composed of contrast sensitivity, masking effect and error in this stu...
