Video Quality Assessment System at Youku

Jing Li (Alibaba Group, China)

With the fast proliferation of online video sites and social media platforms, user, professionally and occupationally generated content (UGC, PGC, OGC) videos are streamed and explosively shared over the Internet. Consequently, it is urgent to monitor the content quality of these Internet videos to guarantee the user experience.  Youku, a leading Chinese video hosting service platform, has to establish a video quality assessment system to evaluate the whole life cycle of a video from capturing, production, post-processing, to encoding, transmission and delivering to users. Video formats at Youku include UltraHD, HDR, AR, Free View-point video, VR, etc.  In this talk, the general subjective quality assessment system will be introduced for different application purposes. Then, the corresponding objective quality metrics and the guarantees of the users' experience will be illustrated for better understanding.
