How to Apply the SSIM Measure on RGB Images?

What usually can be done is calculate it per channel and have the average (Or weighted average). So if you have $ {R}_{1}, {G}_{1}, {B}_{1} $ and $ {R}_{2}, {G}_{2}, {B}_{2} $ you would do: $$ {SSIM}_{...

Measuring sharpness/contrast for autofocus

Just run the image through an edge or corner filter and then take the maximum value over the entire image. This gives you the sharpness of the sharpest edge. Then refocus the camera and repeat. Since ...

Is it possible to "determine"/"evaluate" the perceived quality of a music audio/video record by using software in an automatic way?

Is it possible to analyze a recording in a software way ... to "determine"/"evaluate" its subjective quality Yes, very possible; all one needs is to define, mathematically, what &...

What Measure to Compare the Color Depth (Distribution of Colors) of Images

One measure you may use is the Entropy (Information Theory) of the data. Its definition is given by: $$ H \left( X \right) := - \sum_{x \in \mathcal{X}} p \left( x \right) \log p \left( x \right) = \...

How to Apply the SSIM Measure on RGB Images?

I don't see a commonly used standard when implementing it; the original paper [1] and reference code [2] only provide the definition for grayscale images. This means the SSIM result for color images ...

Does Short-time Fourier transform impact quality of signal?

By design, quality should be preserved: STFT is a redundant and fully inversible transform, when time-frequency data remains complex. Note this is not the case anymore when complex coefficients are ...

Does Short-time Fourier transform impact quality of signal?

STFT (short-time Fourier Transform) should not impact the quality of the reconstructed signal if properly implemented. Furthermore, any signal $x[n]$ should be exactly recovered from its STFT analysis ...

Audio Quality Assessment

By quality, one might mean intelligibility, which may be reduced by noise and other signal degradation. This kind of assumes that there is a reference signal that gets degraded, although the reference ...
