ABSTRACT
We are interested in high quality photographs. This paper outlines our research proposal for the tasks of classification and quality assessment. We address these challenges by exploring the aesthetics from the combined perspectives of the artists and the photographers. We propose to use the aesthetic primitives of images for visualization as a guideline for high and low-level image feature extraction and to classify this high quality content into six creative exposure themes, which are commonly followed by the professional photographers. Then, we suggest to evaluate the quality of the photograph accordingly to these themes. We solve the problems using statistical modeling and learning approach.

Visual quality assessment algorithms: what does the future hold?
Creating algorithms capable of predicting the perceived quality of a visual stimulus defines the field of objective visual quality assessment (QA). The field of objective QA has received tremendous attention in the recent past, with many successful ...
Classifying high quality photographs by creative exposure themes
FDIA'09: Proceedings of the Third BCS-IRSG conference on Future Directions in Information AccessIn this paper, we propose to utilize contextual camera setting parameters at the time of capture to perform the classification task of high quality photographs. With supervised machine learning algorithm, we build a model that can classify high quality ...
Technical Quality-Assisted Image Aesthetics Quality Assessment
Pattern Recognition and Computer VisionAbstractImage aesthetics assessment (IAA) aims at predicting the perceived aesthetic quality of images. Intuitively, the technical quality of an image has significant impact on its aesthetic quality, e.g., an image with noticeable distortions is not ...
