Abstract:
Simulation of human visual system (HVS) is very crucial for fitting human perception and improving assessment performance in stereoscopic image quality assessment (SIQA). In this paper, a no-reference SIQA method considering feedback mechanism and orientation selectivity of HVS is proposed. In HVS, feedback connections are indispensable during the process of human perception, which has not been studied in the existing SIQA models. Therefore, we design a new feedback module (FBM) to realize the guidance of the high-level region of visual cortex to the low-level region. In addition, given the orientation selectivity of primary visual cortex cells, a deformable feature extraction block is explored to simulate it, and the block can adaptively select the regions of interest. Meanwhile, retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) with different receptive fields have different sensitivities to objects of different sizes in the image. So a new multi receptive fields information extraction and fusion manner is realized in the network structure. Experimental results show that the proposed model is superior to the state-of-the-art no-reference SIQA methods and has excellent generalization ability.
