2AFC Prompting of Large Multimodal Models for Image Quality Assessment

no code implementations2 Feb 2024 Hanwei Zhu, Xiangjie Sui, Baoliang Chen, Xuelin Liu, Peilin Chen, Yuming Fang, Shiqi Wang

While abundant research has been conducted on improving high-level visual understanding and reasoning capabilities of large multimodal models~(LMMs), their visual quality assessment~(IQA) ability has been relatively under-explored.

Perceptual Quality Assessment of Face Video Compression: A Benchmark and An Effective Method

1 code implementation14 Apr 2023 Yixuan Li, Bolin Chen, Baoliang Chen, Meng Wang, Shiqi Wang, Weisi Lin

In this paper, we introduce the large-scale Compressed Face Video Quality Assessment (CFVQA) database, which is the first attempt to systematically understand the perceptual quality and diversified compression distortions in face videos.

Learning from Mixed Datasets: A Monotonic Image Quality Assessment Model

1 code implementation21 Sep 2022 Zhaopeng Feng, Keyang Zhang, Shuyue Jia, Baoliang Chen, Shiqi Wang

Deep learning based image quality assessment (IQA) models usually learn to predict image quality from a single dataset, leading the model to overfit specific scenes.

Just Noticeable Difference Modeling for Face Recognition System

no code implementations13 Sep 2022 Yu Tian, Zhangkai Ni, Baoliang Chen, Shurun Wang, Shiqi Wang, Hanli Wang, Sam Kwong

In particular, in order to maximum redundancy removal without impairment of robust identity information, we apply the encoder with multiple feature extraction and attention-based feature decomposition modules to progressively decompose face features into two uncorrelated components, i. e., identity and residual features, via self-supervised learning.

Deep Feature Statistics Mapping for Generalized Screen Content Image Quality Assessment

1 code implementation12 Sep 2022 Baoliang Chen, Hanwei Zhu, Lingyu Zhu, Shiqi Wang, Sam Kwong

The underlying mechanism of the proposed approach is based upon the mild assumption that the SCIs, which are not physically acquired, still obey certain statistics that could be understood in a learning fashion.

DeepWSD: Projecting Degradations in Perceptual Space to Wasserstein Distance in Deep Feature Space

1 code implementation5 Aug 2022 Xigran Liao, Baoliang Chen, Hanwei Zhu, Shiqi Wang, Mingliang Zhou, Sam Kwong

Existing deep learning-based full-reference IQA (FR-IQA) models usually predict the image quality in a deterministic way by explicitly comparing the features, gauging how severely distorted an image is by how far the corresponding feature lies from the space of the reference images.
