Stereo image quality evaluation method based on binocular fusion

The invention belongs to the video and image processing field and provides a stereo image quality evaluation method which is in accord with related characteristics of a human visual system and is more effective. Through the method, quality of a stereo image can be more accurately and effectively evaluated, and development of the stereo imaging technology is further facilitated to a certain degree. The method comprises steps that step 1, a monocular perception model in accord with the human visual characteristics is constructed; and step 2, an image distortion degree QD of a perception image Xv acquired at the step 1 is calculated, 1), structure similarity SSIM of left and right view image subblocks is calculated; 2), the final image distortion degree QD is constructed, in combination with eye stereo visual binocular characteristics and visual center significance characteristics, weighted summation of structure similarity indexes of the image subblocks is carried out to calculate a final image distortion degree evaluation score QD. The method is mainly applied to video and image processing.
