- Title: Multi-task deep CNN model for no-reference image quality assessment on
smartphone camera photos
- Authors: Chen-Hsiu Huang, Ja-Ling Wu
- Abstract summary: We propose a multi-task deep CNN model with scene type detection as an auxiliary task.
With the shared model parameters in the convolution layer, the learned feature maps could become more scene-relevant.
The evaluation result shows improved SROCC performance compared to traditional NR-IQA methods and single task CNN-based models.

- Abstract: Smartphone is the most successful consumer electronic product in today's
mobile social network era. The smartphone camera quality and its image
post-processing capability is the dominant factor that impacts consumer's
buying decision. However, the quality evaluation of photos taken from
smartphones remains a labor-intensive work and relies on professional
photographers and experts. As an extension of the prior CNN-based NR-IQA
approach, we propose a multi-task deep CNN model with scene type detection as
an auxiliary task. With the shared model parameters in the convolution layer,
the learned feature maps could become more scene-relevant and enhance the
performance. The evaluation result shows improved SROCC performance compared to
traditional NR-IQA methods and single task CNN-based models.
