چکیده
Assessment of image quality based on structural information is a relevant topic in the image processing field. A new method to assess image quality is presented. It is based on the comparison of first and second order moments of the local variance distribution of two images. This new quality index is better suited to assess the non-stationarity of images, therefore it explicitly focuses on the image structure. A second index is also proposed to be used for low noise cases. This new quality indexes are compared to state-of-the art objective methods for a wide range of signal transformations and images.

Reduced-Reference Image Quality Assessment based on saliency region extraction
In this paper, a novel saliency theory based RR-IQA metric is introduced. As the human visual system is sensitive to the salient region, evaluating the image quality based on the salient region could increase the accuracy of the algorithm. In order to extract the salient regions, we use blob decomposition (BD) tool as a texture component descriptor. A new method for blob decomposition is propos...
متن کاملA Survey on Full Reference Image Quality Assessment Algorithms
Image quality measurement is very important for various image processing applications such as recognition, retrieval, classification, compression, restoration and similar fields. The images may contain different types of distortions like blur, noise, contrast change etc. So it is essential to rate the image quality appropriately. Traditionally subjective rating methods are used to evaluate the ...
متن کاملA Novel Image Structural Similarity Index Considering Image Content Detectability Using Maximally Stable Extremal Region Descriptor
The image content detectability and image structure preservation are closely related concepts with undeniable role in image quality assessment. However, the most attention of image quality studies has been paid to image structure evaluation, few of them focused on image content detectability. Examining the image structure was firstly introduced and assessed in Structural SIMilarity (SSIM) measu...
متن کاملRVSIM: a feature similarity method for full-reference image quality assessment
Image quality assessment is an important topic in the field of digital image processing. In this study, a full-reference image quality assessment method called Riesz transform and Visual contrast sensitivity-based feature SIMilarity index (RVSIM) is proposed. More precisely, a Log-Gabor filter is first used to decompose reference and distorted images, and Riesz transform is performed on the dec...
متن کاملLocal Standard Deviation Based Image Quality Metrics for JPEG Compressed Images
In this paper, we address the Full-Reference (FR) Image Quality Metric (IQM) to assess the quality of JPEG-coded images and we present a new effective and efficient IQA model, called Local Standard Deviation Based Image Quality (LSDBIQ). The approach is based on the comparison of the local standard deviation of two images. The proposed metrics is tested on four well-known databases available in...
