Beyond Cosine Similarity: Magnitude-Aware CLIP for No-Reference Image Quality Assessment

AAAI 2026technical

Recent efforts have repurposed the Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) model for No-Reference Image Quality Assessment (NR-IQA) by measuring the cosine similarity between the image embedding and textual prompts such as "a good photo" or "a bad photo." However, this semantic similarity ove

Mitigating Perception Bias: A Training-Free Approach to Enhance LMM for Image Quality Assessment

AAAI 2026technical

Despite the impressive performance of large multimodal models (LMMs) in high-level visual tasks, their capacity for image quality assessment (IQA) remains limited. One main reason is that LMMs are primarily trained for high-level tasks (e.g., image captioning), emphasizing unified image semantics ex

AI-generated Image Quality Assessment in Visual Communication

AAAI 2025technical

Assessing the quality of artificial intelligence-generated images (AIGIs) plays a crucial role in their application in real-world scenarios. However, traditional image quality assessment (IQA) algorithms primarily focus on low-level visual perception, while existing IQA works on AIGIs overemphasize…

Adaptive Image Quality Assessment via Teaching Large Multimodal Model to Compare

NeurIPS 2024spotlight

While recent advancements in large multimodal models (LMMs) have significantly improved their abilities in image quality assessment (IQA) relying on absolute quality rating, how to transfer reliable relative quality comparison outputs to continuous perceptual quality scores remains largely unexplore…

Towards Open-ended Visual Quality Comparison

ECCV 2024oral

"Comparative settings (pairwise choice, listwise ranking) have been adopted by a wide range of subjective studies for image quality assessment (IQA), as it inherently standardizes the evaluation criteria across different observers and offer more clear-cut responses. In this work, we extend the edge…

Unrolled Decomposed Unpaired Learning for Controllable Low-Light Video Enhancement

ECCV 2024poster

"Obtaining pairs of low/normal-light videos, with motions, is more challenging than still images, which raises technical issues and poses the technical route of unpaired learning as a critical role. This paper makes endeavors in the direction of learning for low-light video enhancement without using…

ScanDMM: A Deep Markov Model of Scanpath Prediction for 360deg Images

CVPR 2023poster

Scanpath prediction for 360deg images aims to produce dynamic gaze behaviors based on the human visual perception mechanism. Most existing scanpath prediction methods for 360deg images do not give a complete treatment of the time-dependency when predicting human scanpath, resulting in inferior perfo…
