Embodiment Construction

[0029] The invention will now be described in more detail. Reference is now made in more detail to the implementations of the invention shown in the drawings and equations.

[0030] At least one implementation provides a full-reference (FR) objective method of assessing the perceptual quality of decoded video frames in the presence of packet loss. Based on the edge information of the reference frame, the visibility of each image patch of the error propagated frame is calculated, and the distortion of each image patch is incorporated accordingly, and then the quality of the whole frame is evaluated.

[0031] Such a scheme addresses the situation that occurs when a video frame is encoded by the H.264 / AVC codec and an entire frame is lost due to a transmission error. Then, the video is decoded using advanced error concealment methods. Such an implementation provides a properly designed error calculation and combining method that exploits the spatial masking effects of distortio...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a full-reference (FR) objective method for assessing perceptual quality of decoded video frames in the presence of packet losses and coding artifacts. A method of assessing perceptual quality is provided. First, a value indicating an amount of distortion in a corresponding portion is accessed. Then, that value is classified as packet-loss distortion or coding-artifact distortion. Next, the classified value is modified to account for visibility differences of the human visual system, based on the classification, and then the modified values are combined for the multiple portions, to form a value indicating a total amount of distortion for the multiple portions.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 11,525, filed January 18, 2008, based on the filing date of 35 U.S.C. § 119(e). technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a full-reference (FR) objective method for assessing perceptual quality, in particular to a full-reference (FR) objective method for assessing the perceptual quality of decoded video frames in the presence of packet loss and coding artifacts. Background technique [0004] A typical video communication system can be divided into three main components such as figure 1 As shown, the three main components are: encoding 310 of the input YUV sequence, transmission 320 , and decoding 330 to obtain the output YUV sequence 340 . Perceptual quality degradation occurs in the processed video frames due to lossy coding and packet loss in the suboptimal transmission channel in the first two components. Although the mean...
