  • Publication number: 20070088516
    Abstract: A new reduced reference (RR) video calibration and quality monitoring system utilizes less than 10 kilobits/second of reference information from the source video stream. This new video calibration and quality monitoring system utilizes feature extraction techniques similar to those found in the NTIA General Video Quality Model (VQM) recently standardized by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). Objective to subjective correlation results are presented for 18 subjectively rated data sets that include more than 2500 video clips from a wide range of video scenes and systems. The method is being implemented in a new end-to-end video-quality monitoring tool that utilizes the Internet to communicate the low bandwidth features between the source and destination ends.
