LARGE-SCALE VIDEO COMPRESSION RESEARCH WORK ON QUALITY OF EXPERIENCE (QOE) EVALUATION

The large variety of video data sources means variability not only in terms of included content, but also in terms of quality. The paper describes a comprehensive evaluation experiment on perceived video quality. Consequently, in summary, 19, 200, 000 video frames will be processed. Given the scale of the experiment, it is set up on a computer cluster in order to accelerate the calculations significantly. This work on Quality of Experience (QoE) is synchronized with that conducted by the Video Quality Experts Group (VQEG). The resulting data will be available to the community as they may be useful in other projects as well.
