Video Quality of Experience Evaluation based on Content-Aware Packet Loss Effect Analysis

According to the popularity of variant video streaming applications over the Internet, video quality assessment is essential for network operators in order to evaluate video stream quality and measure the Quality of Experience. Packet loss affects both the decoder performance and the user's perception of video quality due to several network issues. The main goal of this paper is to estimate the perceived video quality at the receiver's side by passive measurement and also evaluate how errors propagate through temporal prediction. Our proposed method is based on the network level parameters by considering the codec and frame information. Our experiment analysis will finally verify the accuracy and the efficiency of our proposed method.
