Depth-Image-Based-Rendering (DIBR) is one of the core techniques for generating new views in 3D video applications. However, the distortion characteristics of the DIBR synthetic view are different from the 2D image. It is necessary to study the unique distortion characteristics of DIBR views and design effective and efficient algorithms to evaluate the DIBR-synthesized image and guide DIBR algorithms. In this work, the visual saliency and texture natrualness features are extracted to evaluate

... e quality of the DIBR views. After extracting the feature, we adopt machine learning method for mapping the extracted feature to the quality score of the DIBR views. Experiments constructed on two synthetic view databases IETR and IRCCyN/IVC, and the results show that our proposed algorithm performs better than the compared synthetic view quality evaluation methods.
