Video Quality - Subjective Video Quality

Subjective Video Quality

The main goal of many objective video quality metrics is to automatically estimate average user (viewer) opinion on a quality of video processed by the system. Sometimes however, measurement of subjective video quality can also be challenging because it may require a trained expert to judge it. Many “subjective video quality measurements” are described in ITU-T recommendation BT.500. Their main idea is the same as in Mean Opinion Score for audio: video sequences are shown to the group of viewers and then their opinion is recorded and averaged to evaluate the quality of each video sequence. However, details of testing may vary greatly.

Famous quotes containing the words subjective, video and/or quality:

    every subjective phenomenon is essentially connected with a single point of view, and it seems inevitable that an objective, physical theory will abandon that point of view.
    Thomas Nagel (b. 1938)

    I recently learned something quite interesting about video games. Many young people have developed incredible hand, eye, and brain coordination in playing these games. The air force believes these kids will be our outstanding pilots should they fly our jets.
    Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)

    The past is interesting not only for the beauty which the artists for whom it was the present were able to extract from it, but also as past, for its historical value. The same goes for the present. The pleasure which we derive from the representation of the present is due not only to the beauty in which it may be clothed, but also from its essential quality of being present.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
