Attention Mechanism Guided Content-Aware No-Reference Image Quality Assessment

No-reference image quality assessment (NR-IQA) quantifies image distortion. It plays an important role in computer vision. Distorted images vary greatly in content. Many existing methods tend to fuse content information with quality prediction. However, they often overlook human visual perception. To address this issue...

No-Reference Image Quality Assessment via Perception-Guided Distortion Representation Refinement

No-Reference Image Quality Assessment (NR-IQA) aims to predict perceptual image quality from distorted images without reference signals. Existing NR-IQA methods often incorporate visual attention through external weighting or feature fusion, while semantic and distortion cues are often not sufficiently organized for qu...
