Abstract

A non-intrusive test method for video sequences is described that correlates a number of quality indicators derived from a sequence with a matrix of constants to predict a quality score for the sequence.

Claims (4)

1 . A method of comparing two frames from a video sequence, the method comprising the steps of;
(i) taking a first frame from said video sequence;
(ii) taking the subsequent frame from said sequence;
(iii) comparing one pixel from the first frame with the corresponding pixel from the subsequent frame; and (iv) repeating step (iii) for all pixels in a test area of the first frame.
2. A method according to claim 1 wherein the luminance of the corresponding pixels is compared.
3. A method according to claim 1 wherein if the results of the comparison stage indicate a large number of substantially equal pixels then a dropped frame is inferred.
4. A method according to claim 1 wherein if the results of the comparison stage indicate a small number of substantially equal pixels then a scene cut is inferred.
4. A method of assessing the quality of a video sequence, the method comprising the steps of (i) comparing all of the frames in the video sequence with the subsequent frame in accordance with claim 1 (ii) ignoring those comparisons indicating a dropped frame or a scene cut (iii) calculating a quality figure from the remaining comparison values
