Abstract

For objective assessment of stereoscopic 3D image quality, we measure quality of left and right image with 2D image quality measurement method. However, this method is inconvenient because that we have to measure quality of left and right image individually. Therefore we propose a method of stereoscopic 3D image quality assessment using one overlaid image with left and right image. Using this method, One can measure quality of stereoscopic 3D image more easily and quickly.

스테레오스코픽 3D 영상의 객관적인 화질 평가를 위해서 지금까지는 왼쪽과 오른쪽 영상에 대해 각각 2D 영상의 화질을 측정, 평가하는 방법을 사용하였다. 하지만 이 방법은 각각의 영상에 대해서 별도로 화질을 평가해야 하는 불편함이 따랐다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 왼쪽과 오른쪽 영상을 중첩하여 만든 하나의 영상을 통하여 스테레오스코픽 3D 영상의 화질을 평가하는 방법을 제안하여, 보다 간편하고 빠르게 스테레오스코픽 3D 영상의 화질을 평가할 수 있도록 하였다.
