4. Binary -Relation-Fuzzy Soft Matrix-Theoretic Image-quality Measure: Comparison with Statistical Similarity''
We present a new approach for structural similarity for assessing gray scale image quality. The structural similarity measure SSIM, proposed in 2004, has been widely used. It is based on statistical similarity between the two images. However, SSIM can produce confusing results in some cases where it may give a non-trivial amount of similarity while the two images are quite different. Also, it fails to detect similarity at low peak signal to noise ratio (PSRN). In this paper, we present a novel image similarity measure, named (BR-FS-ISM), by using fuzzy soft Matrix-theoretic technique based on binary relation- fuzzy soft set. The proposed method has been tested under Gaussian noise. Simulation results show that the proposed measure BR-FS-ISM outperforms statistical similarity SSIM by ability to detect similarity under very low PSNR. The average difference is about 10dB.
