Abstract
The difference of illumination between to-be-mosaicked images will cause mosaic artifacts when digital images are mosaicked. An objective assessment method of digital images mosaic artifacts visibility based on human visual perception has been studied in this paper. The process of the method are as follows; 1) the gradient errors image is obtained according to the to-be-mosaicked images, 2) the just noticeable difference (JND) of reference image is derived by considering the human visual frequency sensitivity, the brightness mask effects and texture mask effects on visual resolution comprehensively; 3) the mosaic artifacts image which is perceptible visually can be acquired by subtracting the JND threshold values from the wavelet coefficients of gradient errors image in wavelet domain. The mosaic artifacts visibility (MAV) of digital image is constructed to use as an objective assessment index of image stitching seam visibility by considering the average value and information entropy of the mosaic artifacts image comprehensively. The experiment indicates that the objective assessment results of digital image mosaic artifacts visibility by MAV index are consistent with those of the subjective perceptual method basically.
