Real-time audio and video artifacts detection tool

This paper proposes a real-time Audio and Video Artifacts Detection Tool (AVADT), solution that wraps implemented artifacts detection methods for most important and common audio and video artifacts. It can also be used for evaluation of different modules and functions of device under testing (e.g. encoder, decoder). AVADT can operate in two modes: offline mode for evaluation of existing, locally stored content and online mode for evaluation of content delivered through network or other services of delivering live audio and video signal. Both modes support numerical and graphical representation of algorithms' results on a per frame basis. Along with ten video and six audio artifacts detection algorithms, AVADT has an additional feature, method for measuring of audio-to-video synchronization of device under testing.
