Perceptual image distortion measures can play a fundamental role in evaluating and optimizing imaging systems and image processing algorithms. Many existing measures are formulate...
It is well known that in professional TV show filming, stage lighting has to be carefully designed in order to make the host and the scene look visually appealing. The lighting a...
Spatial pooling strategies used in recent Image Quality Assessment (IQA) algorithms have generally been that of simply averaging the values of the obtained scores across the image...
This paper develops a new mask in the spatial domain for image watermarking. The mask exploits the properties of human visual system with respect to background luminance, the edge...
We introduce a new concept for accelerating realistic image synthesis algorithms. At the core of this procedure is a novel physical error metric that correctly predicts the percep...
