A generic method to increase the prediction accuracy of visual quality metrics
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new simple, effective and generic method is presented that allows to increase the prediction accuracy of visual quality metrics. This method is based on the observation, that the correlation between subjective results and objective metrics is very high for one special sequence or image coded at several bit rates with the same codec. This can be used to decrease the absolute error between the predicted visual quality and the actual visual quality and therefore increase the overall correlation between prediction results and results from subjective tests. Using the described method PSNR is extended to PSNR+. Comparing this new metric PSNR+ to two popular image quality metrics shows that the prediction accuracy can be increased significantly.

Background and Objectives: Stock price prediction has become one of the interesting and also challenging topics for researchers in the past few years. Due to the non-linear nature of the time-series data of the stock prices, mathematical modeling approaches usually fail to yield acceptable results. Therefore, machine learning methods can be a promising solution to this problem. Methods: In this...

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...

Genomic selection is a promising challenge for discovering genetic variants influencing quantitative and threshold traits for improving the genetic gain and accuracy of genomic prediction in animal breeding. Since a proportion of genotypes are generally uncalled, therefore, prediction of genomic accuracy requires imputation of missing genotypes. The objectives of this study were (1) to quantify...
متن کاملEvaluation of Classifiers in Software Fault-Proneness Prediction
Reliability of software counts on its fault-prone modules. This means that the less software consists of fault-prone units the more we may trust it. Therefore, if we are able to predict the number of fault-prone modules of software, it will be possible to judge the software reliability. In predicting software fault-prone modules, one of the contributing features is software metric by which one ...
