Towards No-Reference of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio

The aim of this work is to define a no-referenced perceptual image quality estimator applying the perceptual concepts of the Chromatic Induction Model The approach consists in comparing the received image, presumably degraded, against the perceptual versions (different distances) of this image degraded by means of a Model of Chromatic Induction, which uses some of the human visual system properties. Also we compare our model with an original estimator in image quality assessment, PSNR. Results are highly correlated with the ones obtained by PSNR for image (99.32% Lenna and 96.95% for image Baboon), but this proposal does not need an original image or a reference one in order to give an estimation of the quality of the degraded image.
