Notes

The stats created by this program are purely based on the Euclidean distance in RGBA space between the pixels of the images. Later versions will include different measures such as CIE color space measurements and filters for perception models.

The error calculation used reflects the perceived quality of images only roughly.

To determine what image is better nothing can surpass having a look for yourself!
