contents Immersive Computer Graphics (CGs) rendering has become ubiquitous in modern daily life. However, comprehensively evaluating CG quality remains challenging for two reasons: First, existing CG datasets lack systematic descriptions of rendering quality; and second existing CG quality assessment methods cannot provide reasonable text-based explanations. To address these issues, we first identify six key perceptual dimensions of CG quality from the user perspective and construct a dataset of 3500 CG images with corresponding quality descriptions. Each description covers CG style, content, and perceived quality along the selected dimensions. Furthermore, we use a subset of the dataset to build several question-answer benchmarks based on the descriptions in order to evaluate the responses of existing Vision Language Models (VLMs). We find that current VLMs are not sufficiently accurate in judging fine-grained CG quality, but that descriptions of visually similar images can significantly improve a VLM's understanding of a given CG image. Motivated by this observation, we adopt retrieval-augmented generation and propose a two-stream retrieval framework that effectively enhances the CG quality assessment capabilities of VLMs. Experiments on several representative VLMs demonstrate that our method substantially improves their performance on CG quality assessment.
