The independent test results from the VQEG FR-TV Phase II tests are summarized, as well as results from eleven other subjective data sets that were used to develop the NTIA General Model.
Abstract
The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) General Model for estimating video quality and its associated calibration techniques were independently evaluated by the Video Quality Experts Group (VQEG) in their Phase II Full Reference Television (FR-TV) test. The NTIA General Model was the only video quality estimator that was in the top performing group for both the 525-line and 625-line video tests. As a result, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) adopted the NTIA General Model and its associated calibration techniques as a North American Standard in 2003. The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has also included the NTIA General Model as a normative method in two Draft Recommendations. This paper presents a description of the NTIA General Model and its associated calibration techniques. The independent test results from the VQEG FR-TV Phase II tests are summarized, as well as results from eleven other subjective data sets that were used to develop the method.

Quality of experience aware video scheduling in LTE networks

TL;DR: The proposed algorithm, referred to as Delay Constrained Proportional Fairness (DCPF), minimizes the inter-frame delay for a streaming video application by prioritizing users based on the difference between the delay of the head of the line packet and the average delay experienced by the user.

Reduced video quality measure based on 3D steerable wavelet transform and modified structural similarity index

TL;DR: New reduced video quality measure (RVQM) based on 3D steerable wavelet transform and modified SSIM (Structural Similarity index) measure is presented and shows good correlation with subjective grades on both databases, while having fast calculation time.

H.264/AVC video packet aggregation and unequal error protection for noisy channels

TL;DR: This work uses cross-layer dynamic programming to address both adaptive packet formation as well as RCPC-channel code rate allocation simultaneously, to improve received video quality.

DVQ: A digital video quality metric based on human vision

TL;DR: The Digital Video Quality (DVQ) metric as discussed by the authors is based on the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and incorporates aspects of early visual processing, including light adaptation, luminance and chromatic channels, spatial and temporal filtering, spatial frequency channels, contrast masking, and probability summation.

Video Quality Measurement Techniques

Stephen Wolf
TL;DR: The goal of this report is to provide a complete description of the ITS video quality metric (VQM) algorithms and techniques, which provide close approximations to the overall quality impressions, or mean opinion scores, of digital video impairments that have been graded by panels of viewers.

PVQM – A perceptual video quality measure

TL;DR: A perceptual video quality system is proposed, that uses a linear combination of three indicators, the “edginess” of the luminance, the normalized color error and the temporal decorrelation, that showed the highest variance weighted regression overall correlation of all models.
