The High-Resolution Rate-Distortion Function under the Structural Similarity Index
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that the structural similarity (SSIM) index, which is used in image processing to assess the similarity between an image representation and an original reference image, can be formulated as a locally quadratic distortion measure. We, furthermore, show that recent results of Linder and Zamir on the rate-distortion function (RDF) under locally quadratic distortion measures are applicable to this SSIM distortion measure. We finally derive the high-resolution SSIM-RDF and provide a simple method to numerically compute an approximation of the SSIM-RDF of real images.

Application of the central weighted structural similarity index for the estimation of the face recognition accuracy
In the paper a novel method for the estimation of the face recognition accuracy based on the modified Structural Similarity is presented. A typical application of the Structural Similarity index is related to the full-reference objective image quality assessment. Growing popularity of this metric is caused not only by the fact of its relatively low computational complexity but also by its sensi...
متن کاملEffect of Phase-Encoding Reduction on Geometric Distortion and BOLD Signal Changes in fMRI
Introduction Echo-planar imaging (EPI) is a group of fast data acquisition methods commonly used in fMRI studies. It acquires multiple image lines in k-space after a single excitation, which leads to a very short scan time. A well-known problem with EPI is that it is more sensitive to distortions due to the used encoding scheme. Source of distortion is inhomogeneity in the static B0 field that ...
متن کاملLearning Convolutional Networks for Content-weighted Image Compression
Lossy image compression is generally formulated as a joint rate-distortion optimization to learn encoder, quantizer, and decoder. However, the quantizer is nondifferentiable, and discrete entropy estimation usually is required for rate control. These make it very challenging to develop a convolutional network (CNN)-based image compression system. In this paper, motivated by that the local infor...
متن کاملPerformance Analysis of Texture Similarity Metrics in Hevc Intra Prediction
The visual signal is highly occupied by regions of homogeneous and repetitive patterns known as Textures. Textures have a common property that their similarity highly deviates from point by point comparison, i.e, two textures can look very similar even if they have some shift, rotation and difference in their distribution. In the context of compression, All of the MPEG reference encoders (inclu...
متن کاملSSIM-Inspired Quality Assessment, Compression, and Processing for Visual Communications
Objective Image and Video Quality Assessment (I/VQA) measures predict image/video quality as perceived by human beings the ultimate consumers of visual data. Existing research in the area is mainly limited to benchmarking and monitoring of visual data. The use of I/VQA measures in the design and optimization of image/video processing algorithms and systems is more desirable, challenging and fru...
