SSIM, or Structural Similarity Index Measure, is a method for measuring the similarity between two images or video frames. It assesses the perceived quality of a video by considering changes in structural information, luminance, and contrast, which are essential for human visual perception. This metric is particularly useful in video codecs and compression, as it helps evaluate how well a compressed video retains its quality compared to the original.
