We propose a new no-reference image quality assessment model nPSNR (No-reference PSNR) for JPEG compressed images. The model performs in DCT domain and the DCT coefficient distribution is used. This method estimates the MSQE (mean-squared quantization error) of a decoded image with the distributions of AC coefficients and DC coefficients of the encoded image, for PSNR estimation in DCT domain without...
We propose a unified deblocking/error-concealment algorithm for simultaneously alleviating blockiness and restoring lost blocks. Blockiness and block loss are two of the most frequently encountered artifacts for block-DCT based visual signal coding and transmission. The problem of error-concealment and deblocking is formulated as block-wise expectation estimation processes conditioned on available...
In this paper, the problem of concealing missing image/video blocks is casted into a framework of Bayesian estimation. The conditional expectation of the missing block vector is taken over a pilot vector of correctly decoded pixels near the missing block. Multiple observations of the missing vector and pilot vectors obtained in a nonlocal manner are used to approximate the expectation. We design a...
We propose an effective deblocking scheme with extremely low computational complexity. The algorithm involves three parts: local ac coefficient regularization (ACR) of shifted blocks in the discrete cosine transform (DCT) domain, block-wise shape adaptive filtering (BSAF) in the spatial domain, and quantization constraint (QC) in the DCT domain. The DCT domain ACR suppresses the grid noise (blockiness)...
