Blind Image Quality Assessment Based on Hybrid Fuzzy-Genetic Technique

摘要

A new method for no-reference image quality assessment based on hybrid fuzzy-genetic technique is proposed. Noise variance and edge sharpness level of the restored image are two basic metrics for assessing the performance of the restoration algorithm, then a fuzzy if-then inference system is developed to combine the two metrics to get a final quality score, and the parameters of the fuzzy membership function are trained with genetic algorithms. Experiments results show that the image quality score correlates well with mean opinion score and the proposed approach is robust and effective.
