General, personalized, and artistic image aesthetic assessment: a survey

The evaluation method of image aesthetics is a hot issue in current research. Image aesthetic evaluation is divided into three types: universal, personalized and artistic. Mass image aesthetic evaluation mainly studies the standard aesthetic perception evaluation of most people's images, personalized image aesthetic evaluation can be evaluated according to the user's personalized aesthetic perception, and artistic image aesthetic evaluation evaluates the aesthetic quality of artistic images by simulating human aesthetic perception ability. Researchers have conducted relevant research on image aesthetic evaluation and made some progress. However, there is a lack of a review of the three methods of image aesthetic evaluation in the existing literature, and this paper summarizes the research progress and trends of three types of image aesthetic evaluation: universal, personalized and artistic. Firstly, the research status of image aesthetic evaluation is analyzed. The commonly used datasets and evaluation indicators are summarized, and finally, the application prospect of image aesthetic evaluation is introduced, and the development direction of future research work is pointed out.

Abstract

The evaluation method of image aesthetics is a hot issue in current research. Image aesthetic evaluation is divided into three types: universal, personalized and artistic. Mass image aesthetic evaluation mainly studies the standard aesthetic perception evaluation of most people's images, personalized image aesthetic evaluation can be evaluated according to the user's personalized aesthetic perception, and artistic image aesthetic evaluation evaluates the aesthetic quality of artistic images by simulating human aesthetic perception ability. Researchers have conducted relevant research on image aesthetic evaluation and made some progress. However, there is a lack of a review of the three methods of image aesthetic evaluation in the existing literature, and this paper summarizes the research progress and trends of three types of image aesthetic evaluation: universal, personalized and artistic. Firstly, the research status of image aesthetic evaluation is analyzed. The commonly used datasets and evaluation indicators are summarized, and finally, the application prospect of image aesthetic evaluation is introduced, and the development direction of future research work is pointed out.
