Blind image quality assessment without training on human opinion scores
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a family of image quality assessment (IQA) models based on natural scene statistics (NSS), that can predict the subjective quality of a distorted image without reference to a corresponding distortionless image, and without any training results on human opinion scores of distorted images. These ‘completely blind’ models compete well with standard non-blind image quality indices in terms of subjective predictive performance when tested on the large publicly available ‘LIVE’ Image Quality database.

An important aim of research on the blind image quality assessment (IQA) problem is to devise perceptual models that can predict the quality of distorted images with as little prior knowledge of the images or their distortions as possible. Current state-of-the-art ‘general purpose’ no reference (NR) IQA algorithms require knowledge about anticipated distortions in the form of training examples ...
متن کاملNo-training, no-reference image quality index using perceptual features
We propose a universal no-reference (NR) image quality assessment (QA) index that does not require training on human opinion scores. The new index utilizes perceptually relevant image features extracted from the distorted image. These include the mean phase con-gruency (PC) of the image, the entropy of the phase congruencyPC image, the entropy of the distorted image, and the mean gradient magni...
متن کاملBlind Image / Video Quality Assessment Based on DCT-Domain Statistics
As the need of quality assessment increases day by day. Here develops an efficient general-purpose blind image/video quality assessment (I/VQA) algorithm using a natural scene statistics (NSS) model of discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficients. The image/video quality assessment approach relies on a simple Bayesian inference model to predict image/video quality scores from certain extracted ...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Quality Representation Approach to Deep Blind Image Quality Prediction
Blind image quality assessment (BIQA) remains a very challenging problem due to the unavailability of a reference image. Deep learning based BIQA methods have been attracting increasing attention in recent years, yet it remains a difficult task to train a robust deep BIQA model because of the very limited number of training samples with human subjective scores. Most existing methods learn a reg...
متن کاملDCT Modern Statics Approach based Blind Image Quality Assessment using A Natural Scene Statistics (NSS) Model
We develop an efficient general-purpose blind/no-reference image quality assessment (IQA) algorithm using a natural scene statistics (NSS) model of discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficients. The algorithm is computationally appealing, given the availability of platforms optimized for DCT computation. The approach relies on a simple Bayesian inference model to predict image quality scores giv...
