초록
본 논문에서는 기존에 영상의 품질을 평가하는 데 사용되던 지표가 저조도 영상에 대해서도 적용될 수 있음을 확인한다. 저조도 영상의 특성상, 빛과 관련된 요인들이 다양한 잡음 패턴을 만들어내고 빛의 양이 적을수록 극심한 잡음을 가지고 있다. 그렇기 때문에, 잡음이 없는 깨끗한 영상을 구하기 힘든 상황에서 잡음이 제거된 저조도 영상의 품질을 사람의 눈으로 판단하는 경우가많다. 본 논문에서는, ground truth를 구할 수 없는 저조도 영상의 잡음을 Noise2Noise를 이용해서제거하고, MTF와 SNR 등의 지표로 공간 해상도와 방사 해상도를 ISO 12233 차트와 colorchecker 를 대상으로 평가한다. 정성적 평가 위주로 평가되던 저조도 영상의 품질이 정량적으로도 평가될수 있음을 보여줄 수 있다.
Abstract
In this paper, it is confirmed that the metrics used to evaluate image quality can be applied to low-light images. Due to the nature of low-illumination images, factors related to light create various noise patterns, and the smaller the amount of light, the more severe the noise. Therefore, in situations where it is difficult to obtain a clean image without noise, the quality of a low-illuminance image from which noise has been removed is often judged by the human eye. In this paper, noise in low-illuminance images for which ground truth cannot be obtained is removed using Noise2Noise, and spatial resolution and radial resolution are evaluated using ISO 12233 charts and colorchecker as metrics such as MTF and SNR. It can be shown that the quality of the low-illuminance image, which has been evaluated mainly for qualitative evaluation, can also be evaluated quantitatively.
