Abstract: The European project CineXPRES is focusing on improving the digitization, preservation and restoration workflows for old film content. One very important topic in this project is an attempt to define a practical quality assessment for digitized film content. We believe that there is no absolute measure of quality but only measures dedicated to specific decision processes. To this end, we define three different image quality estimators, providing efficient tools in various situations that every archivist will have to face in the future: a multidimensional objective quality measure consisting in a collection of different degradation estimators, a conditional subjective quality estimator taking the display into account, and a conditional objective quality estimator, considering the ease to restore a content. This paper describes the computation of these estimators, and review few practical situations where they provide answers to complex decision making situations.
