The popularity of video content is increasing rapidly and hence videos have formed a part of people’s daily lives. Consequently, this has alleviated the onus on service providers to ensure that the quality of content perceived by the end users is acceptable. Although subjective evaluation is the most accurate form of quality assessment, it is typically cumbersome, time-consuming and expensive. As a result, objective metrics able to capture the quality as perceived by the Human Visual System (HVS) have been proposed in the literature.
Three publications related to objective VQA have been released; click on links for more information:
- Objective Quality of Experience Metrics for Television Services (O-QoE4TV) Technical Report
- An Objective No-Reference Video Quality Assessment Metric (Master’s Dissertation)
- A No-Reference Video Quality Metric Using a Natural Video Statistical Model (paper)
