| Summary: | Arbitrary translational Six Degrees of Freedom (6DoF) video represents a transitional stage towards immersive terminal videos, allowing users to freely switch viewpoints for a 3D scene experience. However, the increased freedom of movement introduces new distortions that significantly impact human visual perception quality. Therefore, it is crucial to explore quality assessment (QA) to validate its application feasibility. In this study, we conduct subjective and objective QAs of arbitrary translational 6DoF videos. Subjectively, we establish an arbitrary translational 6DoF synthesized video quality database, specifically exploring path navigation in 3D space, which has often been limited to planar navigation in previous studies. We simulate path navigation distortion, rendering distortion, and compression distortion to create a subjective QA database. Objectively, based on the spatio-temporal distribution characteristics of various distortions, we propose a no-reference video quality assessment (VQA) metric for arbitrary translational 6DoF videos. The experimental results on the established subjective dataset fully demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed objective method. |
