Abstract: Quality estimation in images is an area which demands high attention of researchers. Many recent algorithms in Image quality assessment relies on the computation of definite values from the image or comparison with the original pristine image. Here, we propose the extraction of a set of specific features from image and processing is done on these extracted features to obtain the objective quality score. The detailed inspection of behaviour of this set of highly specific image features extracted through less complex mathematical procedure from a collection good quality and low quality set of Natural Scene Statistics images available in LIVE dataset is elaborated in this work. Our studies and results are compared with the subjective opinion value and is proven to be accurate. The obtained results are demonstrated using statistical and graphical manner for promptness in understanding the nature of quality of the image. Thus the proposed feature set is proven to be complete in assessing the quantitative quality value of any Natural image.
