Combined No-Reference Image Quality Metrics for Visual Quality Assessment Optimized for Remote Sensing Images
PublicationNo-reference image quality assessment is one of the most demanding areas of image analysis for many applications where the results of the analysis should be strongly correlated with the quality of an input image and the corresponding reference image is unavailable. One of the examples might be remote sensing since the transmission of such obtained images often requires the use of lossy compression and they are often distorted,...

PublicationIn the paper a new combined image quality metric is proposed, which is based on three methods previously described by various researchers. The main advantage of the presented approach is the strong linear correlation with the subjective scores without additional nonlinear mapping. The values and the obtained correlation coefficients of the proposed metric have been compared with some other state-of-art ones using two largest...

A Fast Prediction of the OCR Results Based on Binary Image Quality Assessment Methods
PublicationSince the first step of the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) procedure is usually image binarization and the execution of the OCR process takes longer time than image quality assessment (IQA) of binary images, a fast prediction of the OCR results before text recognition would be interesting for non-uniformly illuminated document images, also for applications in mobile devices. Since IQA methods for binary images usually require...
