A objective quality assessment for the evaluation performance of a video transmission system as a basic step for construction of digital video transmission system between the spots and headquarter. Due to a limit of an analog video transmission system and the developments of various digital media and digital video standards, the need of introduce of a digital system are increased gradual1y, At this points. previously performance evaluations are performed and the quality assessment is the most important thing. We can be divided quality assessment method by the subjective quality assessment and objective quality assessment. The subjective quality assessment method has some problems which are required high cost and much time to evaluate the quality, And because existing objective quality assessment method such that PSNR are based on an analog form, the correlation with subjective data is very low. Therefore we design a new objective quality assessment method using Gabor wavelet transform reflecting HVS(Human Visual System), Designed objective quality assessment method is superior to other objective method such that PSNR or EPSNR In this paper, we proposed objective quality assessment using Gabor wavelet can be used for performance evaluation and verification of video transmission system.

Sound quality engineering in automobile noise applications has become more and more important under the current quiet driving condition because various noise components masked under high noise level can be audible in quieter driving situation. Many researches have been carried out for subjective and objective assessments on automobile sounds and noises. In particular, the interior sound quality has been one of research fields that can give high-quality feature to automobile products. Although many works related to the interior sound quality have been progressed or completed in foreign countries, limited research results are presented in the country. In the study, subjective assessments are first performed with 20 subjects to select perceptual adjectives suitable to the assessment of car interior noises during acceleration. The selected perceptual adjectives are employed as the assessment scales to evaluate the acceleration noises in questionnaire procedures using 35 subjects, for which several noises are created through digital filtering of the acceleration noises measured. Mean values and standard deviations for subjective assessment scores obtained by the questionnaire procedures are calculated and their reliability are also verified. Finally, various statistical analyses such as the correlation analysis and the factor analysis are carried out to reveal the interrelationship between the assessment scales and the spectrum components of the acceleration noises.

본 논문에서는 이어폰의 주관 평가 기법에 대해서 소개한다. 음질의 주관 평가는 동시비교를 위한 평가 자극간의 즉각적인 스위칭을 제공하도록 설계되어야 한다. 그럼에도 불구하고 이어폰의 음질 평가의 경우에 있어서는, 물리적으로 평가 자극간의 즉각적인 스위칭이 불가능하여 직접적인 주관 평가에 어려운 점이 있다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 각 이어폰으로부터의 자극을 녹음하여 녹음된 자극간의 동시 비교를 통하여 이어폰을 평가하는 방법을 제안하고, 이에 필요한 선처리들과 평가 결과에 대하여 소개한다.

Speech quality measurement is sorted subjective and objective speech quality measurements based on the mathematics representation. Between two, subjective speech quality measurement is able to be evaluated more accurate speech quality then objective one but it has a demerit such as taking much more time and cost to performance it. However, using objective speech quality measurement being able to predict the result of evaluating the subjective speech quality compliments the demerit of subjective standards which is mentioned former. In this paper, we propose the objective speech quality measurement in order to evaluate naturalness assessment approximately like subjective speech quality measurement. We measured naturalness of speech with estimating speaking rate, variation of pitch and energy.

인터넷을 통한 영상 서비스의 비중이 점점 높아지고 있다. 인터넷을 통한 스트리밍 형태로 제공되는 영상서비스는 전송 과정에서 품질이 저하될 수 있기 때문에 품질 평가 및 관리가 매우 중요하다. 현재 영상 서비스에 대한 품질 관리는 특정 파라미터들의 측정값에 기초한 객관적 방법이 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 영상 서비스의 품질은 사람이 체감하는 품질이기 때문에 본질적으로 주관적인 측정이 더 이상적이라 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 모바일 환경에서 주관적 방법이 가지는 한계점을 극복할 수 있는 영상 서비스 품질 관리 방안을 제안하고 이를 위한 시스템을 설계한다. 제안하는 방법은 향후 모바일 환경에서 영상 서비스를 보다 효율적으로 관리할 수 있는데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

Sound quality engineering in automobile noise applications has become more and more important under the current quiet driving condition that the interior noise level is below 65 dBA, because various noise components masked under high noise level can be audible in quieter driving situation. Many researches have been carried out for subjective and objective assessments on automobile sounds and noises. In particular, the interior sound quality has been one of research fields that can give high-quality feature to automobile products. Although many works related to the interior sound quality have been progressed or completed in foreign countries, limited research results are presented in the country. In the study, as a base step necessary to objective assessments on car interior noises, subjective assessments are performed with 20 subjects. For this purpose, perceptual adjectives suitable to the assessment of acceleration noises are selected as assessment scales through questionnaire procedures using 35 subjects. Mean values and standard deviations are calculated for noises created through digital filtering of acceleration noises measured. In addition, the correlation analysis and the factor analysis are carried out to investigate the dependence of the assessment scales selected.

Conventional MSE or PSNR based methods for objective picture quality assessment of moving picture coder are not well correlated with subjective human evaluation. In recent years, the design of better objective quality assessment has attracted much intention and several picture quality metrics based on the properties of Human Visual System has been proposed. This paper proposes new metric which is appropriate for objective picture quality assessment of block based moving picture coder by considering frequency sensitivity, inter-intra channel masking and several distortion artifacts caused by block based coding. The experimental results show that the proposed method is good correlated with subjective assessment.

3DTV is expected to be a promising next-generation broadcasting service. On the other hand, the visual discomfort/fatigue problems caused by viewing 3D videos have become an important issue. This paper proposes a perceptual quality assessment metric for a stereoscopic video (SV-PQAM). To model the SV-PQAM, this paper presents the following features: temporal variance, disparity variation in intra-frames, disparity variation in inter-frames and disparity distribution of frame boundary areas, which affect the human perception of depth and visual discomfort for stereoscopic views. The four features were combined into the SV-PQAM, which then becomes a no-reference stereoscopic video quality perception model, as an objective quality assessment metric. The proposed SV-PQAM does not require a depth map but instead uses the disparity information by a simple estimation. The model parameters were estimated based on linear regression from the mean score opinion values obtained from the subjective perception quality assessments. The experimental results showed that the proposed SV-PQAM exhibits high consistency with subjective perception quality assessment results in terms of the Pearson correlation coefficient value of 0.808, and the prediction performance exhibited good consistency with a zero outlier ratio value.

본 논문에서는 멀티미디어 응용을 위한 동영상의 주관적 품질평가방법으로 널리 사용되는 DSCQS(Double Stimulus Continuous Quality Scale method) 및 ACR(Absolute Category Rating)방법을 비교분석하였다. 두 가지 방법을 비교 실험한 결과 MOS (Mean Opinion Score) 값의 경우 DSCQS와 ACR의 평가치가 매우 높은 상관도를 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 DMOS (Difference Mean Opinion Score)값의 경우에는 DSCQS와 ACR 방법이 MOS 값의 경우보다 약간 낮은 정도의 상관도를 보였다. 이 같은 결과는 ACR 방식이 DSCQS에 필적하는 성능을 제공하며 많은 수의 영상을 평가 할 수 있는 효율적인 주관적 품질평가 방법임을 보여주고 있다.
