Researchers have developed a standardized workflow for assessing the quality of light field media, crucial for the standardization of immersive media coding. This framework, created within JPEG Pleno standardization activities, combines benchmark generation with a hybrid subjective evaluation method that uses both reference-anchored ratings and pairwise refinement. The study also systematically evaluated a range of objective metrics, finding that while many perform well for coding-only artifacts, their accuracy decreases significantly when view synthesis distortions are introduced, highlighting the need for improved metrics in future light field quality assessments.
