Image Quality appraisal has been an exacting task in the field of image processing without any satisfactory answer so far. Image quality evaluation tries to quantify a visual quality, an amount of distortion in a given picture. These changes are an inescapable component of any digital picture processing. The correct method of valuing the human-perceived visual quality of the images is the assessment by the human beings. Unfortunately, this process is luxurious, time consuming and cannot be applied in real-time applications. Therefore, there is a demand for a computerized technique that would conceive of the human-perceived visual quality as close as possible. This survey presents an overview about different quality metrics used in-order to assess the image degradation. The few metrics studied are MSE, SNR, PSNR, SSIM, AD, MD, MAE, NK, VSNR, RMSE, UIQM, MSSSIM, FSSIM etc. The image quality metrics are verified with perspective to satellite pictures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
