No-reference image quality map generation method based on adversarial generative network

Abstract

The invention discloses a no-reference image quality map generation method based on an adversarial generative network. According to the method, a U-net network framework with eight down-samples and eight up-samples is adopted in a generation network part; a classification network is adopted in the discrimination network part; a mode of adding L1 norm loss to the cross entropy of a discriminator isadopted in the loss function part; and finally, a generative network model is iteratively trained, a similar graph of the input distortion graph is acquired through the generative network model, anda corresponding quality score is obtained through the similar graph. The method has no reference quality evaluation. Quality evaluation is performed on the distorted image under the condition of no natural image by using the trained neural network framework. The problem of calculating the quality score of the similar graph with the weight problem is solved. Based on an adversarial generative network and U-net, graph-to-graph conversion and migration are realized more effectively. An experiment result has a good result in graph-to-graph implementation, and the simulated mass fraction and the real mass fraction have strong correlation and small errors.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of image processing and provides a non-reference image quality map generation method based on an adversarial generation network. It involves image quality evaluation methods, and involves the application of generative confrontation networks in deep learning in image quality evaluation. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, with the rapid development of Internet technology and communication technology, digital images have become an important way of information transmission in people's daily life. According to statistics, since 2011, the total number of digital photos produced in the world has reached tens of billions, and this number is still increasing year by year. However, images are susceptible to different kinds of distortions during the process of acquisition, storage, compression, and transmission, resulting in reduced image quality. Therefore, how to evaluate image quality accurately and reliably has become...
