Statistical Image Quality Measure

Kyoung-Yul Bae · Journal of Intelligence and Information Systems · 2007

The image quality measure is an important issue in the image processing. Several methods which measure the image quality have been proposed and these are based on the mathematical point of view. However, there is difference between the mathematicalmeasure and the measure based on the human visual system and a new measure has to be proposed because the final target of the image is a human visual system In this paper, a statistical image quality measure which is considered the human visual feature was suggested. The human visual system is using the global quality of the image and the local quality of the image and the local quality is more important to human visual system. In this paper, the image divided into several segments and the image qualities were calculated respectively. After then, the statistical method using scoring was applied to the image qualities. The result of the image quality measure was similar to the result of measure based on the human visual system.
