Abstract
An image quality scorer machine accesses a candidate image to be analyzed for visual quality. The image quality scorer machine generates a visual quality score of the candidate image by first generating a prediction of a similarity score for the candidate image. The predicted similarly score of the candidate image may be generated by a process including inputting the candidate image into a neural network that has been trained to detect a set of image features in the candidate image and then to generate a corresponding predicted similarity score based on degrees to which the image features in the set are present in the candidate image. The image quality scorer machine derives the visual quality score based on the predicted similarity score outputted by the neural network. Accordingly, the image quality score machine may provide or store the generated visual quality score of candidate image for subsequent usage.
