No-Reference Quality Assessment of an Image Resizing Algorithms

In this paper, a No-Reference method is proposed for quality assessment of an image resizing methods based on interpolation algorithms. Quality refers to the image blur. To this end, it is proposed to use a previously developed measure based on a statistical assessment of the Weibull distribution shape parameter, adopted as a model for gradient magnitude of an image. The results of numerical experiments are presented that allow us to evaluate and compare the quality of various image resizing algorithms.
