A Review of Image Quality Assessment Algorithm to Overcome Problem of Unnatural Contrast Enhancement
Image contrast enhancement is designed to increase the visibility of image details. The following problems may occur after contrast enhancement: amplification of noise artifacts, saturation-loss of details, excessive brightness change and unnatural enhancement. The objective of this paper is to...

Image contrast enhancement is designed to
increase the visibility of image details. The following problems
may occur after contrast enhancement: amplification of noise
artifacts, saturation-loss of details, excessive brightness change
and unnatural enhancement. The objective of this paper is to
survey the existing Image Quality Assessment Algorithms (IQAs)
to overcome the problem of unnatural contrast enhancement.
The aim of IQA is to rate the quality of the image in a way
consistent to human visual perception. The rating is useful as
feedback to image processing algorithm to fine tune parameters
for optimal result. The survey shows that most IQAs are fidelitybased
which are not suitable for evaluating of the contrast
enhanced image. The majority of non-fidelity-based IQAs are
related to sharpness and contrast. There are only a small number
of IQAs designed to address the problem caused by contrast
enhancement. There are two IQAs designed to address the
problem of unnatural contrast enhancement – Lightness Order
Error (LOE) and Structure Measure Operator (SMO) but they
are found not giving a rating consistent to human visual
perception. Statistical Naturalness Measure (SNM) is designed to
evaluate the quality of Tone Mapped images. It is found that one
of statistical model the IQA which is related to the contrast is
useful in detecting the problem unnatural contrast enhancement.
However, the problem of inconsistent ratings for same image
content but different spatial resolution needs to be addressed. |
