Main idea

The work on this page presents a framework to facilitate reproducibility of research in video quality evaluation. Its initial version is built around the JEG-Hybrid database of HEVC coded video sequences. The framework is modular, organized in the form of pipelined activities, which range from the tools needed to generate the whole database from reference signals up to the analysis of the video quality measures already present in the database. Researchers can rerun, modify and extend any module, starting from any point in the pipeline, while always achieving perfect reproducibility of the results. The modularity of the structure allows to work on subsets of the database since for some analysis this might be too computationally intensive. To this purpose, the framework also includes a software module to compute interesting subsets, in terms of coding conditions, of the whole database.

Software Architecture

The software consists of a pipeline architecture where each active component communicates to the other component using directories (see Fig. 1). Each individual component will be explained next.
