Evaluation of Blur and Gaussian Noise Degradation in Images Using Statistical Model of Natural Scene and Perceptual Image Quality Measure

Anotace: In this paper we present new method for classification of image degradation type based on Riesz transform coefficients and Blind/Referenceless Image Spatial Quality Evaluator (BRISQUE) that employs spatial coefficients. In our method we use additional statistical parameters that gives us statistically better results for blur and all tested degradations together in comparison with previous method. A new method to determine level of blur and Gaussian noise degradation in images using statistical model of natural scene is presented. We defined parameters for evaluation of level of Gaussian noise and blur degradation in images. In real world applications reference image is usually not available therefore proposed method enables classification of image degradation by type and estimation of Gaussian noise and blur levels for any degraded image.
