The Meta Wave: The Next Stage of Technological Innovation** Alvin Toffler, a futurist, proposed the concept of waves of technological innovation in his book named "The Third Wave." According to him, Each wave builds on the foundation laid by the one that came before it. We are currently in the midst of the Information Wave, but a new wave is on the horizon: The Meta Wave. The First Wave was characterized by agrarian civilizations and the use of manual labour. The Second Wave was characterized by industrialization and mass manufacturing. The Third Wave, which began in the 1960s, is characterized by the service industry and the information age. The Information Wave has been made possible by the proliferation of the internet and portable electronic gadgets, which have given us access to an unprecedented amount of information. The Meta Wave is the next stage of technological innovation...
What to do When You Don't Have Gold Standard Images to Compare Your Processed Images How to Measure the Quality of Images When You Don't Have Gold Standard Images to Compare In the realm of image analysis and processing, quantifying image quality forms a crucial cornerstone of various methodologies. This is especially true when there's a lack of gold standard images or ground truth to set the benchmark. In such scenarios, we're often left asking: how can we measure image quality objectively or subjectively? Let's delve into this topic with an emphasis on establishing robust and reliable metrics for image quality analysis. Objective Measurement of Image Quality Without Ground Truth Objective quality metrics quantify the difference between two images based on numerical methods. But, how do we assess image quality objectivel...
