This book is about objective image quality assessment—where the aim is to provide computational models that can automatically predict perceptual image quality. The early years of the 21st century have witnessed a tremendous growth in the use of digital images as a means for representing and communicating information. A considerable percentage of this literature is devoted to methods for improving the appearance of images, or for maintaining the appearance of images that are processed. Nevertheless, the quality of digital images, processed or otherwise, is rarely perfect. Images are subject t

The ability for vision systems to accurately recognize humans based on movement as well as still images has become an increasing area of high interest and research in many aspects of technology and industry, including security. Computer Vision broadly refers to the discipline where extraction of useful 2D and/or 3D information from one or more images is of interest. Since the human visual system works by extracting information from the images formed on the retina of the eye, developments in computer vision are inevitably compared to the abilities of the human vision system. One of the basic
