图像压缩的视觉有效性直接与其所保留的视觉重要信息有关。心理生理学实验结果显示,人眼对图像的边缘、平滑、纹理区域的敏感度不同,同时对小波分解后不同子带部分小波系数的敏感度也不同。本文据此提出了一种新的低比特率小波图像压缩...图像压缩的视觉有效性直接与其所保留的视觉重要信息有关。心理生理学实验结果显示,人眼对图像的边缘、平滑、纹理区域的敏感度不同,同时对小波分解后不同子带部分小波系数的敏感度也不同。本文据此提出了一种新的低比特率小波图像压缩方法。该算法对图像不同区域小波系数进行不同的量化,同时对图像小波分解不同子带系数进行视觉重要性加权,保证优先传输视觉上最重要的系数。实验表明,本文算法适合于低比特率的图像压缩,将其嵌入EZW编码算法中,与传统的EZW算法相比,重构图像的主观视觉质量评价指标VIF(visual information fidelity)值更高,具有更清晰的视觉效果。展开更多

In the first process, quality map of image is measured locally. In the second process, the last quality score is converted from the quality map by using the pooling strategy. The first process had been made effective and significant progresses, while the second process was always done in simple ways. In the second process of the pooling strategy, the optimal perceptual pooling weights should be determined and computed according to Human Visual System (HVS). Thus, a reliable spatial pooling mathematical model based on HVS is an important issue worthy of study. In this paper, a new Visual Perceptual Pooling Strategy (VPPS) for IQA is presented based on contrast sensitivity and luminance sensitivity of HVS. Experimental results with the LIVE database show that the visual perceptual weights, obtained by the proposed pooling strategy, can effectively and significantly improve the performances of the IQA metrics with Mean Structural SIMilarity (MSSIM) or Phase Quantization Code (PQC). It is confirmed that the proposed VPPS demonstrates promising results for improving the performances of existing IQA metrics.展开更多
