Generalized Portrait Quality Assessment

Smartphones have significantly altered the landscape of photographic practices, with a notable emphasis on portrait photography. As the consumer base becomes increasingly discerning, there is a clear escalation in expectations regarding the quality of portrait images. This trend pushes a corresponding advancement in camera technology driving manufacturers to focus on improving image quality, which usually involves developing costly image quality assessment (IQA) protocols for optimizing camera performance. Consequently, automated IQA methods are employed to cut the cost of smartphone camera tuning.
