Determination of metrics describing quality of video data by extracting characteristics from the video data when communicated from a video source to a display device

摘要

A video evaluation device is coupled to a video source, such as a set-top box, that obtains video data, and to a display device that presents video data received from the set-top box. Content received by the video source is communicated to the testing device, which communicates the video data to the display device for presentation to a user and generates a copy of the video data. The video evaluation device applies one or more computer vision methods and machine learned models to the copy of the video data to generate metrics identifying quality of the video data from characteristics extracted from the copy of the video data and likely user interaction with the video data. The video evaluation device testing device also communicates with an online system that combines metrics determined by the video evaluation device as well as data from other sources to identify video data quality.
