Image for Noref

Noref

Noref (No Reference) typically refers to a way of assessing or analyzing data, signals, or images without comparing them to a known standard or reference. In contexts like image or video quality assessment, Noref methods evaluate the quality based solely on the content itself, without needing a perfect or original version for comparison. This approach is useful when no reference material is available, allowing automated systems or algorithms to detect issues or measure quality independently. Essentially, Noref provides a standalone evaluation, making it practical for real-world applications where references are unavailable.
