Full-reference image quality evaluation method based on masking texture features

Abstract

The invention discloses a full-reference image quality evaluation method based on masking texture features, belonging to the technical field of image processing and image quality evaluation. Firstly,the reference image and the distorted image are converted into color space. Secondly, the gradient amplitude and gradient direction of the reference image and the distorted image are extracted and thesimilarity of the gradient information of the image is calculated. Then, the similarity and color difference of the texture features are calculated and the mean and standard deviation of the similarity and color deviation are counted, a 6-Deigenvector is formed, according to that random forest, a regression model is established to fuse the characteristic vector and the subjective MOS value, and the training is carried out. Finally, the 6-D eigenvectors are input into the trained regression model to complete the objective image quality evaluation. The evaluation method disclosed by the invention adopts three different similarity characteristics, uses random forest to establish regression model, realizes full-reference image quality to carry out high-precision objective evaluation, and canmaintain high consistency with human visual characteristics.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of image processing and image quality evaluation, and relates to a full-reference image quality evaluation method based on masked texture features. Background technique [0002] With the advent of the era of big data, more and more images are shared on the Internet.
