Quality of Experience Assessment in Internet TV

TLDR
From the analysis of the collected data it is possible to demonstrate that the interest level has a strong influence in the subjective assessment of the video quality.
Abstract
Nowadays, Service Providers are increasingly concerned about the concept of Quality of Experience (QoE),, even more, when talking about Internet TV or WebTV, where no guarantees of delivery are provided. This paper describes the research and the results on the influence of the level of interest (on a particular sport) in the subjective quality assessment of the corresponding broadcasted media. This analysis is motivated by the work being developed in the European Project My-eDirector 2012, which has the capability to cover the London Olympic Games 2011 via the Web. Therefore, a subjective test was prepared and performed where each observer visioned and assessed the perceived video quality of a set of six sports, encoded in four different bitrate/resolution sets. From the analysis of the collected data it is possible to demonstrate that the interest level has a strong influence in the subjective assessment of the video quality. Based on these results, an empiric formula was deduced to estimate the Mean Opinion Source (MOS) as a function of bitrate and interest level.

Understanding the role of social context and user factors in video Quality of Experience

TL;DR: The results show that the presence of co-viewers increases the user's level of enjoyment and enhances the endurability of the experience, and so does interest in the video content.

Towards Individual QoE for Multiparty Videoconferencing

TL;DR: The impact that video quality has on conversations that revolve around objects that are presented over the video channel is focused on and prior experience with the technology and affective state have on QoE of participants are explored.

What factors influence the quality of experience for WebRTC video calls

TL;DR: The objective is to determine the most and least influential factors in general according to examined users' opinions in the context of WebRTC video calling, and all for the successful management of QoE.

Image Quality Metrics: PSNR vs. SSIM

Alain Horé, +1 more
TL;DR: A simple mathematical relationship is derived between the peak-signal-to-noise ratio and the structural similarity index measure which works for various kinds of image degradations such as Gaussian blur, additive Gaussian white noise, jpeg and jpeg2000 compression.

A Proposed Approach for Quality of Experience Assurance of IPTV

TL;DR: The proposed approach is based on the use of quality of experience (QoE) concept that focuses on the quality perceived by the end user, broader than that oriented to quality of service (QoS) that primarily focus on the performance measures from the network perspective.

The Effect of Content Desirability on Subjective Video Quality Ratings

TL;DR: There is a strong correlation between the desirability of movie content and subjective ratings of video quality and this strong relationship holds across a wide range of encoding levels and movie content when that content is viewed under longer, more naturalistic viewing conditions.

Locally averaged PSNR as a simple objective Video Quality Metric

Vranjes, +2 more
TL;DR: Locally averaged PSNR has shown much better correlation with MOS then PSNR and slightly worse than more complex VQM and SSIM metrics.
