The objective measurement of blocking artifacts plays an important role in the design,
optimization, and assessment of image and video coding systems. We propose a new …

Block transform coding is the most popular approach for image and video compression. The
objective measurement of blocking artifacts plays an important role in the design …

Despite their widespread popularity, the JPEG and MPEG compression standards can lead
to noticeable" blocking" artifacts-artifical rectangular discontinuities in the decoded image …

A method for DCT-domain blind measurement of blocking artifacts is proposed. By
constituting a new block across any two adjacent blocks, the blocking artifact is modeled as …

We study the efficiency of deblocking algorithms for improving visual signals degraded by
blocking artifacts from compression. Rather than using only the perceptually questionable …

In this paper, a method for measuring the perceptual quality of blurred images has been
proposed. Here, the amount of image blur is characterized by the average extent of edges in …

Blind image quality assessment refers to the problem of evaluating the visual quality of an
image without any reference. In this paper, we present a no-reference blur metric for images …

We present a no-reference blur metric for images and video. The blur metric is based on the
analysis of the spread of the edges in an image. Its perceptual significance is validated …

Blur is caused by a pixel receiving light from multiple scene points, and in many cases, such
as object motion, the induced blur varies spatially across the image plane. However, the …

With the prevalence of digital cameras, the number of digital images increases quickly,
which raises the demand for image quality assessment in terms of blur. Based on the edge …
