Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
W artykule zamieszczono analizę wpływu funkcji przesuwnego okna 2-D użytego przy wyznaczaniu wartości dwóch nowoczesnych miar jakości obrazu (Multi-Scale SSIM oraz VIF) na ich korelację z oceną subiektywną. Użyte obrazy testowe są dostępne wraz z subiektywnymi ocenami DMOS jako tzw. baza LIVE zawierająca 982 obrazy poddane pięciu typom zniekształceń. Uzyskane wyniki przeanalizowano pod kątem korelacji liniowej dla dwuwymiarowych wersji kilku typowych okien znanych z widmowej analizy sygnałów.
In this paper there is presented the analysis of influence of a two-dimensional sliding window on the correlation of two modern image quality metrics (MS-SSIM and VIF) with subjective evaluation. The experiments have been performed using a dataset of images with some typical contaminations. These images can be found, together with subjective DMOS scores, as LIVE Image Quality Assessment Database containing 982 images with five common types of distortions. The quality assessment results obtained for these images have been analysed in the aspect of the linear correlation with subjective evaluation using various types of windowing functions. In order to examine the impact of the windowing function on the correlation, some well known window functions typically used in many signal processing applications have been applied in two-dimensional versions as the sliding windows within the quality assessment procedure. The obtained results presented in this paper, together with some previously published ones related to the relationship between the optimal window size for the Structural Similarity metric and the image resolution, can lead to the development of further modifications of the existing image quality assessment methods. The direction of further research should be aimed at even better fitting of objective metrics to human perception of digital images.
