Abstract

Light field imaging is a way to represent human vision from a computational perspective. It contains more visual information than traditional imaging systems. As a basic problem of light field imaging, light field quality assessment has received extensive attention in recent years. In this study, we explore the characteristics of light field data for different visual domains (spatial, angular, coupled, projection, and depth), study the multiple visual features of a light field, and propose a non-reference light field quality assessment method based on aggregation learning of multiple visual features. The proposed method has four key modules: multi-visual representation of a light field, feature extraction, feature aggregation, and quality assessment. It first extracts the natural scene statistics (NSS) features from the central view image in the spatial domain. It extracts gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) features both in the angular domain and in the spatial-angular coupled domain. Then, it extracts the rotation-invariant uniform local binary pattern (LBP) features of depth map in the depth domain, and the statistical characteristics of the local entropy (SDLE) features of refocused images in the projection domain. Finally, the multiple visual features are aggregated to form a visual feature vector for the light field. A prediction model is trained by support vector machines (SVM) to establish a light field quality assessment method based on aggregation learning of multiple visual features.
