Quantitative evaluation method of visual difference caused by image decimation
This paper proposes a method for evaluating visual difference caused by decimation. In many applications it is important to evaluate visual difference of two different images. There exist many image assessment methods that utilize the human visual system (HVS), such as the visual difference predictor (VDP) and the Sarnoff visual discrimination model. In this paper, we extend and elaborate on the conventional image assessment method for the purpose of evaluating the visual difference caused by the image decimation. Our method matches actual human evaluation more and requires less computation complexity than the conventional method.
