In the event that an IEEE standard is translated, only the English version published by IEEE should be considered the approved IEEE standard. Official statements A statement, written or o

Comments on standards Comments for revision of IEEE Standards documents a
16、re welcome from any interested party, regardless of membership affiliation with IEEE. However, IEEE does not provide consulting information or advice pertaining to IEEE Standards documents. Suggestions for changes in documents should be in the form of a proposed change of text, together with appropr
17、iate supporting comments. Since IEEE standards represent a consensus of concerned interests, it is important that any responses to comments and questions also receive the concurrence of a balance of interests. For this reason, IEEE and the members of its societies and Standards Coordinating Committe
18、es are not able to provide an instant response to comments or questions except in those cases where the matter has previously been addressed. For the same reason, IEEE does not respond to interpretation requests. Any person who would like to participate in revisions to an IEEE standard is welcome to
19、 join the relevant IEEE working group. Comments on standards should be submitted to the following address: Secretary, IEEE-SA Standards Board 445 Hoes Lane Piscataway, NJ 08854 USA Laws and regulations Users of IEEE Standards documents should consult all applicable laws and regulations. Compliance w

Updating of IEEE Standards documents Users of IEEE Standards documents should be aware that these documents may be superseded at any time by the issuance of new editions or may be amended from time to time through the issuance of amendments, co
26、rrigenda, or errata. A current IEEE document at any point in time consists of the current edition of the document together with any amendments, corrigenda, or errata then in effect. Every IEEE standard is subjected to review at least every ten years. When a document is more than ten years old and ha
27、s not undergone a revision process, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents, although still of some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned to check to determine that they have the latest edition of any IEEE standard. In order to determine whether a give
28、n document is the current edition and whether it has been amended through the issuance of amendments, corrigenda, or errata, visit the IEEE Xplore at http:/ieeexplore.ieee.org/ or contact IEEE at the address listed previously.

30、on is called to the possibility that implementation of this standard may require use of subject matter covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, no position is taken by the IEEE with respect to the existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. If a patent holde
31、r or patent applicant has filed a statement of assurance via an Accepted Letter of Assurance, then the statement is listed on the IEEE-SA Website at http:/standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/patcom/patents.html. Letters of Assurance may indicate whether the Submitter is willing or unwilling to grant licen

Essential Patent Claims may exist for which a Letter of Assurance has not been received

The IEEE is not responsible for identifying Essential Patent Claims for which a license may be required, for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of Patents Claims, or determining whether any licensing terms or conditions provided in connection with submission of a Letter of Assur
34、ance, if any, or in any licensing agreements are reasonable or non-discriminatory. Users of this standard are expressly advised that determination of the validity of any patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, is entirely their own responsibility.

Introduction This introduction is not part of IEEE Std
40、 3333.1.2-2017, IEEE Standard for the Perceptual Quality Assessment of Three-Dimensional (3D) and Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) Contents. This standard is specifically written for high-end 3D and UHD service purveyors, 3D and UHD display makers, and the 3D digital cinema industry. History On 18 Februa
41、ry 2011, a project was launched to develop IEEE P.3333.1, Quality Assessment of Three Dimensional (3D) Contents Based on Psychophysical Studies Working Group (WG), later changed to Human Factors for Visual Experiences Working Group, and a PAR was submitted. The IEEE Standards Association Corporate A
42、dvisory Group approved it on 8 March 2011, and the IEEE Standards Association Standards Board approved it by 31 March 2011. On 5 April 2011 the project IEEE P3333.1 was official approved. Finally, the WG called for participation on 27 May 2011. On 29 March 2014, IEEE P3333.1 split in two groups (IEE
43、E P3333.1.1 and IEEE P3333.1.2). IEEE P3333.1.1, IEEE Draft Standard for the Quality of Experience (QoE) and Visual-Comfort Assessments of Three-Dimensional (3D) Contents Based on Psychophysical Studies: the PARs request date was 6 November 2013, and its approval date was 26 March 2014. This standar
44、d establishes methods of visual discomfort and quality-of-experience (QoE) assessments of 3D contents based on psychophysical studies. These key factors are constructed in conjunction with the visual factors used to provide visual discomfort and QoE degradation. On 10 July 2015 the standard was offi
45、cially published. IEEE P3333.1.2, IEEE Draft Standard for the Perceptual Quality Assessment of Three-Dimensional (3D) and Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) Contents: the PARs request date was 6 November 2013, and its approval date was 27 March 2014. Originally, the title was IEEE Draft Standard for the Pe
46、rceptual Quality Assessment of Three Dimensional (3D) Contents Based on Physiological Mechanisms. However, on 4 March 2016 after being re-approved, the official name of the PAR changed to the current version. This standard establishes methods of quality assessment of 3D and UHD contents based on hum
47、an visual system analysis, such as perceptual quality and visual attention. 8 Copyright 2018 IEEE. All rights reserved. Contents 1. Scope 9 2. Normative references 9 3.
