Abstract
This disclosure provides for automated techniques to measure full reference-based QoE or VQA-as-a-Service (VQAaaS) for an Internet video stream. Generally, the approach herein involves pre-calculating VMAF scores for given media and then correlating those scores with VMAF scores computed from actual playback segments for the given media. By leveraging the pre-calculated VMAF scores and correlating them with playback data, the system provides for enhanced and accurate video quality analysis (VQA) to enable optimization of viewer Quality of Experience (QoE).
