提出新模型分离边缘模糊与纹理失真,更精准评估图像质量。

BELE: Blur Equivalent Linearized Estimator

  • 分离强边缘模糊与纹理失真,分别用两个指标量化
  • 引入聚焦性概念,使模糊度量与观看距离自适应
  • 适用于需高精度图像质量评估的研究与工业场景

在全参考图像质量评估中,主观评分基于视网膜感知,而客观指标则评估显示图像。连接主客观评价需参数化映射函数,但其对观察者观看距离敏感。本文提出一种新参数模型,将强边缘退化引起的感知效应与纹理失真导致的效应分离开来,并分别用两个独立质量指数衡量。第一个是模糊等效线性估计器(Blur Equivalent Linearized Estimator),用于测量强且孤立边缘的模糊程度,同时考虑观看距离变化的影响;第二个是复杂峰值信噪比(Complex Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio),用于评估影响纹理区域的失真。该估计器的一阶效应直接关联于首个指标,文中提出“聚焦性”概念,作为线性化项。从自然图像中高斯模糊失真的位置费舍尔信息损失模型出发,证明该框架可推广至所有类型失真。最后,在多个主流基准数据集上,通过与经典及深度学习类先进方法对比,验证了理论结果的有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

In the Full-Reference Image Quality Assessment context, Mean Opinion Score values represent subjective evaluations based on retinal perception, while objective metrics assess the reproduced image on the display. Bridging these subjective and objective domains requires parametric mapping functions, which are sensitive to the observer's viewing distance. This paper introduces a novel parametric model that separates perceptual effects due to strong edge degradations from those caused by texture distortions. These effects are quantified using two distinct quality indices. The first is the Blur Equivalent Linearized Estimator, designed to measure blur on strong and isolated edges while accounting for variations in viewing distance. The second is a Complex Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio, which evaluates distortions affecting texture regions. The first-order effects of the estimator are directly tied to the first index, for which we introduce the concept of \emph{focalization}, interpreted as a linearization term. Starting from a Positional Fisher Information loss model applied to Gaussian blur distortion in natural images, we demonstrate how this model can generalize to linearize all types of distortions. Finally, we validate our theoretical findings by comparing them with several state-of-the-art classical and deep-learning-based full-reference image quality assessment methods on widely used benchmark datasets.
