提出轻量级无参考点云质量评估方法,通过分块分析结构纹理特征预测观感质量。

Low-Complexity Patch-based No-Reference Point Cloud Quality Metric exploiting Weighted Structure and Texture Features

  • 分块提取局部结构与纹理特征,融合全局信息进行质量预测
  • 在三个数据集上实现高相关性,跨数据集泛化能力强
  • 参数少、计算量低,适合实时或资源受限场景使用

点云在压缩、传输和渲染过程中会产生各类失真,影响用户感知质量,但评估这些失真对整体质量的影响极具挑战。本文提出PST-PCQA,一种基于轻量级学习框架的无参考点云质量评估方法。该方法通过分析点云的局部块,提取并融合局部与全局特征,利用相关性权重预测平均意见分(MOS)。整个流程无需参考点云,适用于参考数据缺失的场景。在三个先进数据集上的实验表明,PST-PCQA具备良好的预测能力,且对不同特征池化策略具有鲁棒性,能有效跨数据集泛化。消融实验证实了分块评估的有效性。此外,其参数量小、计算开销低,特别适合实时应用及计算资源受限设备。代码、模型与预训练权重已开源:https://github.com/michaelneri/PST-PCQA。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

During the compression, transmission, and rendering of point clouds, various artifacts are introduced, affecting the quality perceived by the end user. However, evaluating the impact of these distortions on the overall quality is a challenging task. This study introduces PST-PCQA, a no-reference point cloud quality metric based on a low-complexity, learning-based framework. It evaluates point cloud quality by analyzing individual patches, integrating local and global features to predict the Mean Opinion Score. In summary, the process involves extracting features from patches, combining them, and using correlation weights to predict the overall quality. This approach allows us to assess point cloud quality without relying on a reference point cloud, making it particularly useful in scenarios where reference data is unavailable. Experimental tests on three state-of-the-art datasets show good prediction capabilities of PST-PCQA, through the analysis of different feature pooling strategies and its ability to generalize across different datasets. The ablation study confirms the benefits of evaluating quality on a patch-by-patch basis. Additionally, PST-PCQA's light-weight structure, with a small number of parameters to learn, makes it well-suited for real-time applications and devices with limited computational capacity. For reproducibility purposes, we made code, model, and pretrained weights available at https://github.com/michaelneri/PST-PCQA.
