Perceptual image quality assessment through spectral analysis of error representations

作者:

Highlights:

• SUMMER is an image quality estimator based on spectral analysis of error signals.

• Spectral analysis is performed over multiple scales and color channels.

• Frequency-based weights are extracted to align spectral analysis scores.

• Mean error spectrum increases as visual degradations become more severe.

• SUMMER significantly outperforms majority of the benchmarked algorithms.
