In this paper, a method for measuring the perceptual image quality of JPEG-2000 coded images has been proposed. The image quality is characterized by the average edgespread in the image, or more specifically the average extent of the slope’s spread of an edge in the opposing gradients’ directions. The proposed method is, in effect, a way of measuring the amount of blurring in the image. The eff...
