Abstract
A particular implementation determines objective distortion levels (d,) respectively for a plurality of artifact types. The objective distortion levels are aligned to ensure that the same distortion level of different types of artifacts corresponds to the same perceived distortion level. The aligned distortion levels (d,') are sorted to obtain sorted distortion levels (d,″). The sorted distortion levels are then pooled together into an overall distortion level or an overall quality metric. The sorted distortion levels may be pooled using a weighted sum, wherein the weight is larger when the sorted distortion level is greater.
