摘要:Higher-quality visual contents are required for use in broader-band networks and higher-quality visual media, and information structures characterizing the “amenity” of visual contents have become a significant research theme. We developed a method for assessing the amenity of synthetic texture by referring to the results of studies on audio-visual quality. The method combines an a-EEG indicated physiological assessment with a psychological assessment by means of Sheffe's paired comparison method. Experiments in which three synthetic textures were evaluated showed that α-EEG potentials are significantly higher for textures rated higher in the psychological assessment. It is suggested that the assessment method is effective for evaluating the amenity of synthetic texture, and that we can use the texture called a “fractal pattern” as a sample for calibration.
