Stereoscopic Image Retargeting Database
Introduction
During the last few decades, 3D/stereoscopic technologies and applications have been widely used in various multimedia scenarios. Compared with the quality assessment of traditional 2D image/video, 3D quality assessment is more sophisticated which involves multiple quality dimensions such as visual comfort, image quality, and depth quality. However, much less work has been done on the perceptual evaluation of stereoscopic image retargeting. Therefore, we build a Stereoscopic Image Retargeting Database (SIRD) to study the perceptual quality of stereoscopic image retargeting.
Database Description
Stereoscopic Image Retargeting Database (SIRD) contains source images and retargeted images produced by four typical stereoscopic retargeting methods. Specifically, this database consists of 100 source images and 400 retargeted images generated by stereo cropping, stereo seam carving, stereo scaling and stereo multi-operator four stereoscopic retargeting methods. Then, the subjective experiment is conducted to assess four aspects of visual distortion, i.e. visual comfort, image quality, depth quality and the overall quality.
