Full-reference image quality assessment (FR-IQA) techniques compare a reference and a distorted/test image and predict the perceptual quality of the test image in terms of a scalar value representing an objective score. The evaluation of…
Image Quality Assessment (IQA) is a critical task in a wide range of applications but remains challenging due to the subjective nature of human perception and the complexity of real-world image distortions. This study proposes MetaQAP, a…
Nowadays, most existing blind image quality assessment (BIQA) models 1) are developed for synthetically-distorted images and often generalize poorly to authentic ones; 2) heavily rely on human ratings, which are prohibitively…
Current full-reference image quality assessment (FR-IQA) methods often fuse features from reference and distorted images, overlooking that color and luminance distortions occur mainly at low frequencies, whereas edge and texture distortions…
Generally, humans are more skilled at perceiving differences between high-quality (HQ) and low-quality (LQ) images than directly judging the quality of a single LQ image. This situation also applies to image quality assessment (IQA).…
