Popis: We develop a new no-reference (NR) stereoscopic video quality assessment model that adopts oriented local gravitational force (OLGF) statistics in the space-time domain. The OLGF is a novel extension of an existing local gravitational force descriptor and includes two new components: relative local gravitational force magnitude and relative local gravitational force orientation. The resulting algorithm, called Stereoscopic Video Integrity Predictor using OLGF Statistics (SVIPOS), first uses our previous work to generate a cyclopean image and a product image in spatial domain from a stereoscopic video sequence pair, and calculates a frame difference image in temporal domain from a left video sequence. Then the OLGF model is deployed to compute various local gravitational force responses on the cyclopean image, the product image and the frame difference image. Finally, a support vector regression is used to map statistical features extracted from the computed gravitational force responses to stereoscopic video quality predications. SVIPOS is thoroughly tested on three publicly stereoscopic video quality databases. The experimental results show that SVIPOS outperforms state-of-the-art stereoscopic video quality methods.
