Abstract

Over 10 billion hours of video are watched each month on the Internet, what, together with high definition television broadcasting and the rise in high quality video on demand makes the task of quality assessment a key one in the global multimedia market nowadays. Automating quality checking is currently based on finding major audiovisual artifacts. The Monitoring Of Audio Visual quality by key Indicators (MOAVI) subgroup of the Video Quality Experts Group (VQEG) is an open collaborative project for developing No-Reference models for monitoring audiovisual service quality. The purpose of this paper is to report the development of the audiovisual part of this project, which includes the detection of lip synchronization (also known as lip sync) artifacts.
