Image Quality Assessment Categories
There are several techniques and metrics that can be measured objectively and automatically evaluated by a computer program. Therefore, they can be classified as full-reference (FR) methods and no-reference (NR) methods. In FR image quality assessment methods, the quality of a test image is evaluated by comparing it with a reference image that is assumed to have perfect quality. NR metrics try to assess the quality of an image without any reference to the original one.
For example, comparing an original image to the output of JPEG compression of that image is full-reference – it uses the original as reference.
