Methods for Image quality assessment

The standard metrics are mean-squared error, peak signal to noise ratio (psnr), and structural similarity (ssim).

Standard Images and Video

\(\DeclareMathOperator{\mean}{mean}\)

  • MSE
    \(\displaystyle \begin{align}MSE = \mean((I_1 - I_2)^2)\end{align}\)
  • PSNR
    \(\displaystyle \begin{align}PSNR=10\log_{10}(\frac{R^2}{MSE})\end{align}\)
    • where R^2 is the maximum fluctuation (e.g. 1.0 for [0-1] float images, 255 for uint8).
  • SSIM

FFmpeg can compute PSNR and SSIM.

Foveated Quality Assessment

  • Lee et al.[1] propose Foveated signal to noise ratio (FSNR) which measures the signal to noise ratio in a curvilinear space. However they do not provide the exact equations to compute the curvilienar space.

Spherical Quality Assessment

  • WS-PSNR[2] is a standard PSNR calculation where the mean squared error is weighted by the size of each pixel.
    \(\displaystyle \begin{align} WMSE &= \frac{1}{\sum_{i,j}w(i,j)} \sum_{i,j} (I_1(i,j)-I_2(i,j))^2 * w(i,j)\\ WS\_PSNR &= 10\log_{10}(\frac{R^2}{WMSE})\\ \end{align} \)
    • The weights are \(w(i,j) = \sin(\frac{j+0.5}{N}\pi) = \cos(\frac{j+0.5-N/2}{N}\pi)\).
  • Spherical PSNR (S-PSNR)[3] uses randomly sampled points on a sphere and back projects them to the reference and reconstructed images. In practice, these randomly sampled points need to be saved for reproducibility. They use 655262 points which are available on their repo.
  • Spherical Structural Similarity Index (S-SSIM) [4] is an extension of SSIM for spherical images.
    \(\displaystyle \begin{align} \text{S-SSIM}(i, j) &= \frac{2 \mu_x \mu_y + C_1)(2 \sigma_{xy} + C_2)}{(\mu_x^2 + \mu_y^2 + C_1)(\sigma_x^2 \sigma_y^2 + C_2)\\ \text{S-SSIM} &= \frac{\sum_m \sum_n \text{S-SSIM}(m, n) * w(m, n)}{\sum_m \sum_n w(m, n)} \end{align} \)
