Evaluation of objective quality measures for noise reduction in TV-systems

چکیده
In this paper, several state-of-the-art noise reduction algorithms are ranked using both subjective evaluation and twenty objective measures proposed in literature. The goal of the study was to find the objective quality measure that best relates to the subjective assessment for noise reduction. A measurement setup comprising a simulation of a TV-transmission channel has been used to provide a realistic assessment of the performance in TV-applications of algorithms reducing Gaussian white noise. Ranking results are given of the subjective evaluation and all objective measures. The correlation between the subjective evaluation results and the objective measures is found to be very low. Results show that even a combination of objective measures only approximates the subjective assessment of the quality of noise reduction algorithms to a limited extent.

متن کاملObjective Perceptual Quality Measures for the Evaluation of Noise Reduction Schemes
In this study, different objective quality measures for the performance prediction of noise reduction schemes are compared to subjective data from psychoacoustic listening tests. It is shown that the considered perceptual measures are appropriate to define a quality test-bench which can be used for the development and optimization of noise reduction schemes.

People with hearing impairment have great difficulties communicating in noisy and reverberant environments. They usually require a higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to achieve the same listening performance as normal hearing people. But even for normal hearing people a noise reduction is desirable in these environments, especially when using modern communication systems such as mobile phones, ...

The noise in reconstructed slices of X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) is of unknown distribution, non-stationary, oriented and difficult to distinguish from main structural information. This requires the development of special post-processing methods based on the local statistical evaluation of the noise component. This paper presents an adaptive method of reducing noise in CT images employing th...
