BLIINDS The development of general-purpose no-reference approaches to image quality assessment still lags recent advances in full-reference methods. Additionally, most no-reference or blind approaches are distortion-specific, meaning they assess only a specific type of distortion assumed present in the test image (such as blockiness, blur, or ringing). This limits their application domain. Other approaches rely on training a machine learning algorithm. These methods however, are only as effective as the features used to train their learning machines. Towards ameliorating this we introduce the BLIINDS index (BLind Image Integrity Notator using DCT Statistics) which is a no-reference approach to image quality assessment that does not assume a specific type of distortion of the image. It is based on predicting image quality based on observing the statistics of local discrete cosine transform coefficients, and it requires only minimal training. The method is shown to correlate highly with human perception of quality.
