Automatic photo cropping is an important tool for improving visual quality of digital photos without resorting to tedious manual selection. Traditionally, photo cropping is accomplished by determining the best proposal window through visual…
Digitization of images has made image editing easier. Ease of image editing tempted users and professionals to manipulate digital images leading to digital image forgeries. Today digital image forgery has posed a great threat to the…
The JPEG compression format has been the standard for lossy image compression for over multiple decades, offering high compression rates at minor perceptual loss in image quality. For GPU-accelerated computer vision and deep learning tasks,…
There is a great adventure of watermarking usage in the context of conventional authentication since it does not require additional storage space for supplementary metadata. However JPEG compression, being a conventional method to compress…
The quality of a face crop in an image is decided by many factors such as camera resolution, distance, and illumination condition. This makes the discrimination of face images with different qualities a challenging problem in realistic…
Quantum imaging is an advanced method for microscopy or investigating the optical properties of materials or bio-medical inspections with high accuracy, low noise, and extremely low photo-damage. In previous work, we proposed a quantum…
We propose a practical method for radiometrically calibrating cameras using widely available gaseous tritium light sources (betalights). Along with the gain(conversion factor) and read noise level, the predictable photon flux of the source…
The exponential progress in generative AI poses serious implications for the credibility of all real images and videos. There will exist a point in the future where 1) digital content produced by generative AI will be indistinguishable from…
Image quality is a nebulous concept with different meanings to different people. To quantify image quality a relative difference is typically calculated between a corrupted image and a ground truth image. But what metric should we use for…
Image compression has been applied in the fields of image storage and video broadcasting. However, it's formidably tough to distinguish the subtle quality differences between those distorted images generated by different algorithms. In this…
The paper introduces the idea of non-uniform quantization in the detail components of wavelet transformed image. It argues that most of the coefficients of horizontal, vertical and diagonal components lie near to zeros and the coefficients…
Noise is an important factor which when get added to an image reduces its quality and appearance. So in order to enhance the image qualities, it has to be removed with preserving the textural information and structural features of image.…
Compressed image quality assessment plays an important role in image services, especially in image compression applications, which can be utilized as a guidance to optimize image processing algorithms. In this paper, we propose an objective…
We investigate a model for image/video quality assessment based on building a set of codevectors representing in a sense some basic properties of images, similar to well-known CORNIA model. We analyze the codebook building method and…
This paper presents a full-reference image quality estimator based on color, structure, and visual system characteristics denoted as CSV. In contrast to the majority of existing methods, we quantify perceptual color degradations rather than…
In this paper we describe the main features of the software package named FITSH, intended to provide a standalone environment for analysis of data acquired by imaging astronomical detectors. The package provides utilities both for the full…
Recent research has widely explored the problem of aesthetics assessment of images with generic content. However, few approaches have been specifically designed to predict the aesthetic quality of images containing human faces, which make…
Image processing is one of the most immerging and widely growing techniques making it a lively research field. Image processing is converting an image to a digital format and then doing different operations on it, such as improving the…
Image forensics aims to detect the manipulation of digital images. Currently, splicing detection, copy-move detection and image retouching detection are drawing much attentions from researchers. However, image editing techniques develop…
The quality of image generation and manipulation is reaching impressive levels, making it increasingly difficult for a human to distinguish between what is real and what is fake. However, deep networks can still pick up on the subtle…
