Abstract
The performance of compression algorithms is traditionally
evaluated by statistical metrics such as mean square error (MSE) and
peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR). However it is well known that these
metrics do not always correlate with visual perception. We have
implemented a well known perceptual metric and evaluated the performance
of a number of recently developed high fidelity compression algorithms
using perceptual as well as statistical metrics. Our preliminary results
do not indicate a consistent correlation between the perceptual metric
used and subjective ranking
