论文摘要

自然图像的统计规律(称为自然场景统计)在不引用图像质量评估中起着重要作用。但是,已经广泛认为通常是计算机生成的屏幕内容图像(SCI)不会持有此类统计信息。在这里,我们首次尝试学习SCI的统计数据,基于可以有效确定SCI的质量。所提出的方法的基本机制是基于一个温和的假设:SCIS并非物理上获得,但仍然可以遵守某些可以以学习方式理解的统计数据。我们从经验上表明,在质量评估中可以有效利用统计偏差,并且在不同的环境中进行评估时,提出的方法优越。广泛的实验结果表明,与现有的NR-IQA模型相比,基于深度统计的SCI质量评估(DFSS-IQA)模型可提供有希望的性能,并在跨数据库设置中显示出很高的概括能力。我们的方法的实现可在https://github.com/baoliang93/dfss-iqa上公开获得。

The statistical regularities of natural images, referred to as natural scene statistics, play an important role in no-reference image quality assessment. However, it has been widely acknowledged that screen content images (SCIs), which are typically computer generated, do not hold such statistics. Here we make the first attempt to learn the statistics of SCIs, based upon which the quality of SCIs can be effectively determined. The underlying mechanism of the proposed approach is based upon the mild assumption that the SCIs, which are not physically acquired, still obey certain statistics that could be understood in a learning fashion. We empirically show that the statistics deviation could be effectively leveraged in quality assessment, and the proposed method is superior when evaluated in different settings. Extensive experimental results demonstrate the Deep Feature Statistics based SCI Quality Assessment (DFSS-IQA) model delivers promising performance compared with existing NR-IQA models and shows a high generalization capability in the cross-dataset settings. The implementation of our method is publicly available at https://github.com/Baoliang93/DFSS-IQA.
