Popis: In an Image Quality Assessment (IQA) scenario, the Human Vision System (HVS) always acts as the ultimate receiver and valuator of generated images. As an important feature of HVS, the visual attention data has been demonstrated to be able to effectively improve the performance of existing objective quality metrics. However, this feature has not yet been well explored in the IQA of image interpolation. In this paper, we conduct an eye-tracking test on an interpolated image database and investigate the impact of visual attention on IQA of image interpolation. Two visual attention models, saliency map and Region Of Interest (ROI), are then obtained from the eye-tracking data. We further incorporate these models into non-integer interpolated IQA metric and examine their performances. Experiments show that the introduction of eye-tracking features obviously improves the conventional IQA metric for non-integer image interpolation.
