Abstract

System and method for adaptively streaming a video. The method includes obtaining a first segment of a video file with a first bitrate and video quality level, and, after obtaining the first segment of the video file, determining, using a controller with a trained reinforcement-learning-based adaptive streaming model, a second bitrate and video quality level of a second segment of the video file to be obtained. The method also includes obtaining the second segment of the video file with the second determined bitrate and video quality level. The method may be repeated for different segments of the video file so as to adaptively stream the video represented by the video file.
