Seven Challenges in Image Quality Assessment: Past, Present, and Future Research
Figure 15
When judging the quality of a distorted image containing near-threshold distortions, one tends to rely primarily on visual detection (often using point-by-point comparisons with the original image) in an attempt to locate any visible differences.

DMOS values indicate differential mean opinion scores from the LIVE image database [124]. Figure from [139].
