Analysis and improvement on statistical naturalness measure

Although Statistical Naturalness Measure (SNM) can rate the naturalness of image�s contrast relatively well, but it suffers from the problem of inconsistent rating across different spatial resolution; ratings for images with identical content and contrast level but different spatial resolution might...
