Many researchers have been developing objective video quality assessment methods due to increasing demand for perceived video quality measurement results by end users to speed-up advancements of multimedia services. However, most of these methods are either Full-Reference (FR) metrics, which require the original video or Reduced-Reference (RR) metrics, which need some features extracted from the original video. No-Reference (NR) metrics, on the other hand, do not require any information about the original video; hence, are much more suitable for applications like video streaming. This paper presents a novel, objective, NR video quality assessment algorithm. The proposed algorithm is based on utilization of spatial extent of video, temporal extent of video using motion vectors, bit rate, and packet loss ratio. Test results obtained using LIVE video quality database demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of the proposed metric.

A PARAMETRIC VIDEO QUALITY MODEL BASED ON SOURCE AND NETWORK CHARACTERISTICS
Zerman, Emin; Konuk, Baris; NUR YILMAZ, GÖKÇE; Akar, Gözde (2014-10-30)
The increasing demand for streaming video raises the need for flexible and easily implemented Video Quality Assessment (VQA) metrics. Although there are different VQA metrics, most of these are either Full-Reference (FR) or Reduced-Reference (RR). Both FR and RR metrics bring challenges for on-the-fly multimedia systems due to the necessity of additional network traffic for reference data. No-eference (NR) video metrics, on the other hand, as the name suggests, are much more flexible for user-end applicatio...
A FUZZY CONCEPTUAL MODEL FOR MULTIMEDIA DATA WITH A TEXT-BASED AUTOMATIC ANNOTATION SCHEME
Kucuk, Dilek; Burcuozgur, N.; Yazıcı, Adnan; KOYUNCU, Murat (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2009-08-01)
The size of multimedia data is increasing fast due to the abundance of multimedia applications. Modeling the semantics of the data effectively is crucial for proper management of it. In this paper, we present a fuzzy conceptual data model for multimedia data which is also generic in the sense that it can be adapted to all multimedia domains. The model takes an object-oriented approach and it handles fuzziness at different representation levels where fuzziness is inherent in multimedia applications and shoul...
A Comparative Study on No-Reference Video Quality Assessment Metrics
Zerman, Emin; Akar, Gözde; Konuk, Baris; NUR YILMAZ, GÖKÇE (2014-04-25)
In the last two decades the Internet technology has boosted and the connection speeds have been incrased from kilobits to hundred megabits scale. With the rising coverage of the Internet and the usage of mobile devices such as tablets and smart phones, the usage of social media and especially multimedia elements has been increased rapidly. This increment in streaming multimedia created a need for the assessment of the user experience on multimedia and especially video. Even though there are different Video ...
AN ABSTRACTION BASED REDUCED REFERENCE DEPTH PERCEPTION METRIC FOR 3D VIDEO
NUR YILMAZ, GÖKÇE; Akar, Gözde (2012-10-03)
In order to speed up the wide-spread proliferation of the 3D video technologies (e.g., coding, transmission, display, etc), the effect of these technologies on 3D perception should be efficiently and reliably investigated. Using Full-Reference (FR) objective metrics for this investigation is not practical especially for "on the fly" 3D perception evaluation. Thus, a Reduced Reference (RR) metric is proposed to predict the depth perception of 3D video in this paper. The color-plus-depth 3D video representati...
A complexity-utility framework for optimizing quality of experience for visual content in mobile devices
Önür, Özgür Deniz; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2012)
Subjective video quality and video decoding complexity are jointly optimized in order to determine the video encoding parameters that will result in the best Quality of Experience (QoE) for an end user watching a video clip on a mobile device. Subjective video quality is estimated by an objective criteria, video quality metric (VQM), and a method for predicting the video quality of a test sequence from the available training sequences with similar content characteristics is presented. Standardized spatial i...
