Overview

Source selection SRC selection algorithm is being developed Several different scales were subjectively evaluated on 5 point Objective SRC characteristic evaluation Work towards semi-automatic selection of SRC sequence pools Gold Set 2012 proposal: Using JEG264HMIX1 sequences Margaret proposes to include Hybrid scene pool into the dataset

of SRC sequences, in particular to emphasize professionally produced video

HRCs, in particular encoding parameters need to be documented AGH has encoded > 1000 PVS in H.264, streaming and

transmission impairments may be added UdN is close to finishing a real time encoding chain with a

Thomson Video Networks hardware encoder

Overview

Availability of FR methods SSIM, PSNR, PSNR_VFD, VQM, VQM_VFD, FastLowBandwidth,

TetraVQM, MOVIE, VIF Swissqual may run the model but cannot provide an executable OPTICOM may run the model but cannot provide an executable and

time constraints may applied Yonsei University may run the model but cannot provide an executable Kjell will ask BTH whether they can run the OPTICOM model

Further work on tools Bug tracking for missing packets in case of transmission distortions

Work towards a hybrid metric Work ongoing at Acreo, Ghent University - iMinds

Future developments HEVC? – Glenn suggests to encode HEVC Audio/Video?
