Abstract:
An objective assessment method for a color image quality based on online manifold learning considers a relationship between a saliency and an image quality objective assessment. Through a visual saliency detection algorithm, saliency maps of a reference image and a distorted image are obtained for further obtaining a maximum fusion saliency map. Based on maximum saliencies of image blocks in the maximum fusion saliency map, a saliency difference between each reference image block and a corresponding distorted image block is measured through an absolute difference, and thus reference visual important image blocks and distorted visual important image blocks are screened and extracted. Through manifold eigenvectors of the reference visual important image blocks and the distorted visual important image blocks, an objective quality assessment value of the distorted image is calculated. The method has an increased assessment effect and a higher correlation between an objective assessment result and a subjective perception.

Abstract:
A microscopic image fusion method based on region growing judges the fuzzy degree of the microscopic image and determines the fuzzy seed block by evaluating the definition of every image block in the microscopic image. Then, the fuzzy region and clear region are exactly segmented by region growing and are marked. Finally, a clear and high-quality microscopic image, fused by a plurality of microscopic images, is obtained. Due to the combination of the definition evaluation of the microscopic image, and segmentation of the fuzzy region and clear region by region growing, the fusion results of the microscopic image of the present invention show great advantages at the subjective human perception and the objective evaluation. Furthermore, the present invention has simple calculation and stable result, is easy to be implemented and adapted for fusing the digital optical microscopic images which are shot by shallow depth of field.
Abstract:
A 3D-HEVC inter-frame information hiding method based on visual perception includes steps of information embedding and information extraction. In the step of information embedding, the human visual perception characteristic is considered, stereo salient images are obtained by a stereo image salient model, and the stereo salient images are divided into salient blocks and non-salient blocks with an otsu threshold. The coding quantization parameters are modified according to different modulation rules for different regions. Then, based on the modified quantization parameters, the coding-tree-units are coded to complete the information embedding. In the step of information extraction, no original video is needed, no any side information needs to be transmitted, and the secret information can be blindly extracted. The present invention combines with the human visual perception characteristic, and selects P frames and B frames as embedded frames for effectively reducing the decrease of the stereo video subjective quality.
Abstract:
A zero-watermarking registration and detection method for HEVC video streaming against requantization transcoding is provided. To increase an attack-resistance of a registration watermarking, the registration method firstly processes depth values corresponding to respective brightness blocks in a target video streaming with a depth binarization during constructing registration watermarking information through depth features, because the depth binarization well reflects a robustness of the registration watermarking. A first watermarking information matrix including a part of the depth values after the depth binarization is encrypted with a random matrix, so as to increase a safety of the registration watermarking. The registration method directly generates zero-watermarking through the depth features of the video streaming without modifying original carrier information and affecting a watermarking transparency. Meanwhile, the registration method has a strong robustness against attacks, such as the requantization transcoding of quantization parameters within a certain range of variation and common signal processing.

Abstract:
A method for objectively evaluating quality of a stereo image is provided. The method obtains a cyclopean image of a stereo image formed in the human visual system by simulating a process that the human visual system deals with the stereo image. The cyclopean image includes three areas: an occlusion area, a binocular fusion area and a binocular suppression area. Representing characteristics of the image according to the singular value of the image has a strong stability. According characteristics of different areas of the human visual system while dealing with the cyclopean image, the distortion degree of the cyclopean image corresponding to the testing stereo image is presented by the singular value distance between cyclopean images respectively corresponding to the testing stereo image and the reference stereo image, in such a manner that an overall visual quality of the testing stereo image is finally evaluated.
