چکیده

Several metrics have been proposed in literature to assess the perceptual quality of two-dimensional images. However, no similar effort has been devoted to quality assessment of stereoscopic images. Therefore, in this paper, we review the different issues related to 3D visualization, and we propose a quality metric for the assessment of stereopairs using the fusion of 2D quality metrics and of the depth information. The proposed metric is evaluated using the SAMVIQ methodology for subjective assessment. Specifically, distortions deriving from coding are taken into account and the quality degradation of the stereopair is estimated by means of subjective tests.

Perceptual Quality Assessment for Stereoscopic Images Based on 2d Image Quality Metrics and Disparity Analysis

Both compression and transmission errors may degrade the quality of stereoscopic images. Although many twodimensional (2D) image quality metrics have been proposed that work well on 2D images, developing quality metrics for three-dimensional visual presentations is almost an unexplored issue. This paper investigates the capabilities of some 2D image quality metrics in stereoscopic image quality...

Quality Assessment for Stereoscopic Images by Distortion Separation

Quality assessment for stereoscopic images is a challenging issue in three-dimensional research. In this paper, we present an objective quality assessment method for stereoscopic images by distortion separation. In the method, we separate the distortion information for the distorted stereoscopic image (i.e., decompose the distorted stereoscopic image into restored and disturbed stereoscopic ima...

Perceptual Quality of Asymmetrically Distorted Stereoscopic Images: the Role of Image Distortion Types

Objective quality assessment of asymmetrically distorted stereoscopic 3D images is a challenging problem, for which direct simple combinations of the quality of the left and right views fail to produce adequate predictions. We carried out a subjective quality assessment experiment on a database that contains both single-view images and stereoscopic images with symmetric and asymmetric distortio...

A Simple Quality Assessment Index for Stereoscopic Images Based on 3D Gradient Magnitude

We present a simple quality assessment index for stereoscopic images based on 3D gradient magnitude. To be more specific, we construct 3D volume from the stereoscopic images across different disparity spaces and calculate pointwise 3D gradient magnitude similarity (3D-GMS) along three horizontal, vertical, and viewpoint directions. Then, the quality score is obtained by averaging the 3D-GMS sco...

Objective quality assessment for stereoscopic images based on structure-texture decomposition

We present a novel quality assessment index for stereoscopic images based on structure-texture decomposition. To be more specific, we decompose a stereoscopic image pair into its structure and texture components. Then, gradient magnitude similarity (GMS) and luminance-contrast similarity (LCS) indexes are used to measure the qualities of structure components and texture components, respectively...

3D Visual Attention for Stereoscopic Image Quality Assessment

Depth perception is one of the most important characteristic in three-dimensional (3D) images different from traditional two-dimensional (2D) images. Therefore, 3D visual attention will be advantageous to improve 3D visual experience and particularly depth perception. In this paper, we propose a 3D visual attention model for stereoscopic image quality assessment task. The proposed model is cons...
