Video Codec Scoring System – ViCoS

Fully automatic video codec and video processing algorithms quality evaluation system

Description

ViCoS is an advanced system with client-server architecture and relational data base support. It allows robust codec launches with user-friendly interface and functions for video codec or video filter analysis with results visualization.

The main purposes of the system:

Fully automatic quality evaluation of video processing systems using objective quality metrics and special sequences.

Both overall quality of the codec and quality of separate codec parts can be analyzed using the system.

Same framework can be used for codec's external options analysis and automatical selection of best presets for a given test set.

Primary Applications

Video codec developers can

perform automatic Quality Assurance

compare to competitors

find weak points of codeñ easily

construct best set of predefined presets

Video codec users can

find the best codec for the desired purpose

find codec with desired speed/quality characteristics

Key Features

Client-server architecture – all codecs, analyzers and metric launches can be parallelized by executing on different PCs or cores of one PC.

Easy modifications – to add new codec, preset or video sequence a user needs to spend approximately 1 minute.

Robust launches – if a codec fails the system continues to work, marking the error for this codec.

DB usage – all results can be saved in a data base. ViCoS supports almost any relational data base management systems through ODBC mechanism: MySQL, MSSQL, Oracle, etc.

Result visualization – all obtained results can be visualized very quickly with user friendly-interface.

Huge Amount of Data Processing – during ViCoS work huge amount of data is produced, it is processed and categorized very easily and user friendly.

Specific Analysis Types – ViCoS uses specific types of analysis: well-known and specially developed (Edge capture, Borders quality, Tail area, Blurring, Synthetic motion, and more than 10 other types).
