Abstract

Nowadays, objective image quality assessment (IQA) plays an important role for performance evaluation of image/video processing systems. Over the past few years, a variety of IQA methods have been introduced and they can be divided into three categories: full-reference IQA, reduced-reference IQA and no-reference IQA. All of these methods are clarified in detail in this book. In this chapter, the overall structure of the book is explained briefly and a summary of each of the following chapters is also provided.
