High dynamic range (HDR) image synthesis from multiple low dynamic range (LDR) exposures continues to be actively researched. The extension to HDR video synthesis is a topic of significant current interest due to potential cost benefits.…
Conventional adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming systems typically rely on static bitrate ladders to optimize Quality of Experience (QoE). While operationally simple, this "one-size-fits-all" approach neglects content-specific characteristics,…
The 3D video quality metric (3VQM) was proposed to evaluate the temporal and spatial variation of the depth errors for the depth values that would lead to inconsistencies between left and right views, fast changing disparities, and…
Previous blind or No Reference (NR) video quality assessment (VQA) models largely rely on features drawn from natural scene statistics (NSS), but under the assumption that the image statistics are stationary in the spatial domain. Several…
Image correction aims to adjust an input image into a visually pleasing one. Existing approaches are proposed mainly from the perspective of image pixel manipulation. They are not effective to recover the details in the under/over exposed…
High dynamic range imaging (HDRI) for real-world dynamic scenes is challenging because moving objects may lead to hybrid degradation of low dynamic range and motion blur. Existing event-based approaches only focus on a separate task, while…
Current state-of-the-art video quality models, such as VMAF, give excellent prediction results by comparing the degraded video with its reference video. However, they do not consider temporal distortions (e.g., frame freezes or skips) that…
Video Quality Assessment (VQA) aims to simulate the process of perceiving video quality by the human visual system (HVS). The judgments made by HVS are always influenced by human subjective feelings. However, most of the current VQA…
