Blind DIBR-synthesized image quality assessment based on sparsity features in morphological multiscale domain

Abstract

© 2017 IEEE. In this paper a no-reference image quality assessment (IQA) metric for DIBR-synthesized images is proposed. Sparsity based features of morphologically decomposed image subbands are used to estimate distortion level in images. A General regression neural network is utilized to calculate quality score. The performance is evaluated using publicly available IRCCyN/IVC DIBR image database. Experimental results show that proposed metric accords with human subjective judgment.
