An Improved SPSIM Index for Image Quality Assessment
S S symmetry Article An Improved SPSIM Index for Image Quality Assessment Mariusz Frackiewicz * , Grzegorz Szolc and Henryk Palus Department of Data Science and Engineering, Silesian University of Technology, Akademicka 16, 44-100 Gliwice, Poland; [email protected] (G.S.); [email protected] (H.P.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-32-2371066 Abstract: Objective image quality assessment (IQA) measures are playing an increasingly important role in the evaluation of digital image quality. New IQA indices are expected to be strongly correlated with subjective observer evaluations expressed by Mean Opinion Score (MOS) or Difference Mean Opinion Score (DMOS). One such recently proposed index is the SuperPixel-based SIMilarity (SPSIM) index, which uses superpixel patches instead of a rectangular pixel grid. The authors of this paper have proposed three modifications to the SPSIM index. For this purpose, the color space used by SPSIM was changed and the way SPSIM determines similarity maps was modified using methods derived from an algorithm for computing the Mean Deviation Similarity Index (MDSI). The third modification was a combination of the first two. These three new quality indices were used in the assessment process. The experimental results obtained for many color images from five image databases demonstrated the advantages of the proposed SPSIM modifications.

How Close Is Close Enough? Specifying Colour Tolerances for Hdr and Wcg Displays
HOW CLOSE IS CLOSE ENOUGH? SPECIFYING COLOUR TOLERANCES FOR HDR AND WCG DISPLAYS Jaclyn A. Pytlarz, Elizabeth G. Pieri Dolby Laboratories Inc., USA ABSTRACT With a new high-dynamic-range (HDR) and wide-colour-gamut (WCG) standard defined in ITU-R BT.2100 (1), display and projector manufacturers are racing to extend their visible colour gamut by brightening and widening colour primaries. The question is: how close is close enough? Having this answer is increasingly important for both consumer and professional display manufacturers who strive to balance design trade-offs. In this paper, we present “ground truth” visible colour differences from a psychophysical experiment using HDR laser cinema projectors with near BT.2100 colour primaries up to 1000 cd/m2. We present our findings, compare colour difference metrics, and propose specifying colour tolerances for HDR/WCG displays using the ΔICTCP (2) metric. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND From initial display design to consumer applications, measuring colour differences is a vital component of the imaging pipeline. Now that the industry has moved towards displays with higher dynamic range as well as wider, more saturated colours, no standardized method of measuring colour differences exists. In display calibration, aside from metamerism effects, it is crucial that the specified tolerances align with human perception. Otherwise, one of two undesirable situations might result: first, tolerances are too large and calibrated displays will not appear to visually match; second, tolerances are unnecessarily tight and the calibration process becomes uneconomic. The goal of this paper is to find a colour difference measurement metric for HDR/WCG displays that balances the two and closely aligns with human vision. -

Color Image Enhancement with Saturation Adjustment Method
Journal of Applied Science and Engineering, Vol. 17, No. 4, pp. 341-352 (2014) DOI: 10.6180/jase.2014.17.4.01 Color Image Enhancement with Saturation Adjustment Method Jen-Shiun Chiang1, Chih-Hsien Hsia2*, Hao-Wei Peng1 and Chun-Hung Lien3 1Department of Electrical Engineering, Tamkang University, Tamsui, Taiwan 251 2Department of Electrical Engineering, Chinese Culture University, Taipei, Taiwan 111 3Commercialization and Service Center, Industrial Technology Research Institute, Taipei, Taiwan 106 Abstract In the traditional color adjustment approach, people tried to separately adjust the luminance and saturation. This approach makes the color over-saturate very easily and makes the image look unnatural. In this study, we try to use the concept of exposure compensation to simulate the brightness changes and to find the relationship among luminance, saturation, and hue. The simulation indicates that saturation changes withthe change of luminance and the simulation also shows there are certain relationships between color variation model and YCbCr color model. Together with all these symptoms, we also include the human vision characteristics to propose a new saturation method to enhance the vision effect of an image. As results, the proposed approach can make the image have better vivid and contrast. Most important of all, unlike the over-saturation caused by the conventional approach, our approach prevents over-saturation and further makes the adjusted image look natural.

This document is paginated for two sided printing Tech 3320 v4.1 User requirements for Video Monitors in Television Production Conformance Notation This document contains both normative text and informative text. All text is normative except for that in the Introduction, any § explicitly labeled as ‘Informative’ or individual paragraphs which start with ‘Note:’. Normative text describes indispensable or mandatory elements. It contains the conformance keywords ‘shall’, ‘should’ or ‘may’, defined as follows: ‘Shall’ and ‘shall not’: Indicate requirements to be followed strictly and from which no deviation is permitted in order to conform to the document. ‘Should’ and ‘should not’: Indicate that, among several possibilities, one is recommended as particularly suitable, without mentioning or excluding others. OR indicate that a certain course of action is preferred but not necessarily required. OR indicate that (in the negative form) a certain possibility or course of action is deprecated but not prohibited. ‘May’ and ‘need not’: Indicate a course of action permissible within the limits of the document. Informative text is potentially helpful to the user, but it is not indispensable, and it does not affect the normative text. Informative text does not contain any conformance keywords. Unless otherwise stated, a conformant implementation is one which includes all mandatory provisions (‘shall’) and, if implemented, all recommended provisions (‘should’) as described. A conformant implementation need not implement optional provisions (‘may’) and need not implement them as described. -

ColorNet: Investigating the importance of color spaces for image classification⋆ Shreyank N Gowda1 and Chun Yuan2 1 Computer Science Department, Tsinghua University, Beijing 10084, China [email protected] 2 Graduate School at Shenzhen, Tsinghua University, Shenzhen 518055, China [email protected] Abstract. Image classification is a fundamental application in computer vision. Recently, deeper networks and highly connected networks have shown state of the art performance for image classification tasks. Most datasets these days consist of a finite number of color images. These color images are taken as input in the form of RGB images and clas- sification is done without modifying them. We explore the importance of color spaces and show that color spaces (essentially transformations of original RGB images) can significantly affect classification accuracy. Further, we show that certain classes of images are better represented in particular color spaces and for a dataset with a highly varying number of classes such as CIFAR and Imagenet, using a model that considers multi- ple color spaces within the same model gives excellent levels of accuracy. Also, we show that such a model, where the input is preprocessed into multiple color spaces simultaneously, needs far fewer parameters to ob- tain high accuracy for classification. For example, our model with 1.75M parameters significantly outperforms DenseNet 100-12 that has 12M pa- rameters and gives results comparable to Densenet-BC-190-40 that has 25.6M parameters for classification of four competitive image classifica- tion datasets namely: CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, SVHN and Imagenet. Our model essentially takes an RGB image as input, simultaneously converts the image into 7 different color spaces and uses these as inputs to individ- ual densenets. -
