Abstract (arXiv)

High-Dynamic-Range Visual-Difference-Predictor version 3, or HDR-VDP-3, is a visual metric that can fulfill several tasks, such as full-reference image/video quality assessment, prediction of visual differences between a pair of images, or prediction of contrast distortions. Here we present a high-level overview of the metric, position it with respect to related work, explain the main differences compared to version 2.2, and describe how the metric was adapted for the HDR Video Quality Measurement Grand Challenge 2023.
