As an added value an overview of the databases with color images for quality assessment is done. It covers 17 publicly available databases having over 5000 pristine images in total.

The main novelty of this reported work includes the calculation of each edge box based local color threshold value from CIELAB color space. This approach makes the proposed system capable of binarizing multi colored texts where a single character has more than one color.

Nowadays virtual reality technology have been widely used and playing videos in virtual reality visual system is becoming more and more popular. However, existing research in VQA fields mainly focus on traditional videos. In this paper, we build the IVQAD which contains 10 raw videos and 150 distorted videos. Bit rate, frame rate and resolution were considered as quality degradation factors. All the videos were encoded with MPEG-4. Subjects were asked to assess the video under virtual reality environment and mean opinion score (MOS) was derived by computing. Using IVQAD 2017, researchers can explore the influence of resolution, video compression and video packet loss on immersive videos' quality.","PeriodicalId":302860,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Systems, Signals and Image Processing (IWSSIP)","volume":"3 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114035155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within this paper, a novel and highly accelerated Frequency Selective Extrapolation adaption is introduced for rapid image error concealment. The state-of-the-art complex-valued Frequency Selective Extrapolation runs with fixed parameters, e.g., a constant number of iterations, so far. In this paper, the algorithm is accelerated by determining local statistics of neighboring blocks. As a consequence, internal parameters can be estimated to match the processed image content dynamically instead of using predefined constants. Due to this, it is possible to achieve the same reconstruction quality as the state-of-the-art algorithm, while the execution time decreases on average by 41.30 % and at best by up to 57.08 %.","PeriodicalId":302860,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Systems, Signals and Image Processing (IWSSIP)","volume":"35 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132237724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, a block-based noise level estimation algorithm in SVD domain is proposed. The proposed algorithm employs the non-overlapping block image segmentation to estimate homogenous image regions. Each homogenous block is used to obtain an independent noise level estimates in SVD domain. For any particular image, the overall noise level estimate is ascertained by averaging over the set of noise level estimates associated with the homogenous image blocks. In this paper, the optimal size of image segmentation blocks is evaluated systematically over a large dataset of x-ray images. The experimental results show that the proposed method offers numerous advantages over some alternative SVD domain method.","PeriodicalId":302860,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Systems, Signals and Image Processing (IWSSIP)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130227681","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, despite the progress made in this field, many issues remain to be solved. Some of them are basically omitted and their importance is trivialized. Routinely, for instance, researchers are willing to make the relative motion model simpler than it should be considered. The commonly applied non-rigid registration method being manually defined does not capture the real motion characteristics that could occur in image sequences. This work extends Iterative Back Projection (IBP) framework in several ways. It nests image priors, deblurring and a discrete dense displacement sampling for the deformable registration of high-resolution images at its core. Applying these constraints to a global optimum of the cost function can be calculated efficiently exploiting dynamic programming. It leads to the smoothness of the deformations of the image's features. This paper proposes an improved super-resolution method while making no compromise on image quality. The author experiment results confirmed the empirical observations, in particular, that the state of the art registration algorithm and blur and noise estimate procedures, as well as image priors, lead to promising results.","PeriodicalId":302860,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Systems, Signals and Image Processing (IWSSIP)","volume":"27 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132026705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
