Color moving pictures quality metric

This paper presents a comprehensive quality metric for color moving pictures which is based on a spatio-temporal vision model and on the opponent-colors theory. The metric is used to assess the quality of MPEG compressed video streams and is compared with a grayscale video quality metric.
