A Similarity Metric for Edge Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
The performance of several discrepancy measures for the comparison of edge images is analyzed and a novel similarity metric aimed at overcoming their problems is proposed. The algorithm finds an optimal matching of the pixels between the images and estimates the error produced by this matching. The resulting Pixel Correspondence Metric (PCM) can take into account edge strength as well as the displacement of edge pixel positions in the estimation of similarity. A series of experimental tests shows the new metric to be a robust and effective tool in the comparison of edge images when a small localization error of the detected edges is allowed.

An Image Quality Metric based on Corner, Edge and Symmetry Maps
Image quality metrics have been widely used in imaging systems to maintain and improve the quality of images being processed and transmitted. Due to the close relationship between image quality perception and the human visual system, the development of image quality metrics has been contributed to by both psychologists and computer scientists. In this paper, three novel image quality metrics ar...

متن کاملExtended ratio edge detector for despeckled SAR image evaluation
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images due to the usage of coherent imaging systems are affected by speckle. So lots of despeckling filters have been introduced up to now to suppress the speckle. Hence, objective and subjective evaluation of the denoised SAR images becomes a necessity. Thereby lots of objective evaluating estimators are introduced to evaluate the performance of despeckling filte...
