Abstract :
In this paper, a computational metric that incorporates many aspects of human vision and color perception to predict the quality of color coded images is presented. The proposed distortion measure is built on opponent-colors theory and on a multi-channel model of spatial vision. The metric has been validated by psychophysical data on 400 images and two human observers.
