Subjective quality analyses of stereoscopic images in 3DTV system

Subjective quality evaluation is the basis of quality evaluation of stereoscopic images. As the lack of a public and diverse testing database currently, in this paper, a symmetric stereoscopic images database is built. And then the subjective quality of stereoscopic images is analyzed from two aspects, one is the effects of JPEG, JPEG2000, H.264. The other is the comparisons between symmetric and asymmetric stereoscopic images from Gaussian blurring, white Gaussian noise, JPEG and JPEG2000, respectively. The results show three compressions are quite different in the subjective quality of symmetric stereoscopic images at different bitrates, and the comparisons between symmetric and asymmetric stereoscopic images investigate the properties of binocular fusion, binocular suppression, and binocular summation.
