Introduction to QoE Measurement


Large volume and variety of multimedia

Subjective experiments is it necessary?


Time consuming Resources consuming One hundred testers Methodology: ITU's ACR-HR (Absolute Category Rating with Hidden Reference, ITU-T P.910)

content Efficient compression algorithms required to minimize data volume Quality of Experience aware compression is desired Maximizing QoE Minimizing data volume

Full-Reference scenario

No-Reference scenario

Full-Reference Video Quality Metrics


PSNR is it good enough? SSIM Structural Similarity

Proposed Solution

Task: develop a metric for H.264 video compression quality

Compression parameters
Constant bitrate of at least 5 levels Constant quantization factor of at least 5 levels Group of Pictures (GoP) structure different sizes and structures: Of at least 2 levels with a variable number of I frames per second Of at least 2 levels with a variable number of B and P frames per second Hierarchical coding of at least 2 horizontal variants Structure of slices of at least 2 levels Number of frames per second of at least 2 levels (original and halved) Resolution of at least 2 levels (original and halved)

Selection of Source Video Sequences (SRC): around 100 10 seconds long 30 FPS Resolution from SD (640x480) to HD (1920x1080) Selection of Hypothetical Reference Circuits (HRC): 1600 Summary: 100x10x30x1600 = 48 000 000 video frames: Each video frame has to encoded (e.g. 1s required to encode a single video frame with JM Reference Software using one CPU core) Calculation of video quality metrics for each video frame Calculation of video content characteristics for each video frame

Calculation time using single core = 2222 days


Assumption 1: 48 000 000 video frames Assumption 2: compression of one video frame in 1s Assumption 3: three video quality metrics to be calculated for

all video frames Assumption 4: calculation of one video quality metric for one frame in 1s
