Image quality evaluation is to use some computational models to predict the quality of the specified image automatically and accurately. Since human eyes are ultimate receptor of images, it is better to mimic human visual system (HVS) to perceive the image quality. Based on the properties of the HVS, a novel bionic image quality metric (IQA) is proposed, which adopts several bionic characteristics, e.g. multi-channel decomposition, contrast sensitivity function, center-surround operation and lateral inhibition mechanism. Experimental results demonstrate that the performance of the proposed IQA method outperforms those of the existing methods.
Keywords:Image Quality Assessment; Human Visual System; Visual Attention
