Cross-Content Evaluations in the Subjective Quality Assessment of Light Field Images
Adam Zizien, Karel Fliegel · 2021
Plenoptic modalities, in general, have seen a steady increase in research activity in recent years. Advances in this field pose additional demands on the development of new compression algorithms, which could be used for efficient delivery and storage of the acquired data. Subjective assessments are a key part of the development process. In this work, we examine the differences between two passive methodologies for the subjective assessment of light field images; a rating methodology, introduced in our previous work, and a ranking methodology. Additionally, we analyse the impact and viability of cross-content evaluations on the results of the assessment. The resulting data are made publicly available and can be used to design new compression algorithms, subjective assessment methodologies, or objective quality metrics.
