A NO-REFERENCE IMAGE QUALITY EVALUATION BASED ON POWER SPECTRUM

No-reference quality evaluation is more difficult because it does not refer to any image. However, in some cases, like virtual view images, can not find the reference image, no-reference method had to be used. With the free viewpoint video technology development and application, measuring the performance of the multiview video system is essential and virtual view image quality evaluation is one of the key technologies in the system. The characteristic of virtual view image quality evaluation is that most of the virtual view images haven't reference images and can't be assessed using general measures such as PSNR of full-reference. Therefore, this paper proposed a no-reference image quality evaluation method based on image power spectrum. Experimental results show that the proposed method is consistent with PSNR.
