Minecraft Video Aesthetics Quality Assessment Model

Authors Info & Claims
Published:06 December 2023Publication History

ABSTRACT

We propose the Minecraft Video Aesthetic Quality Assessment Model (MCVQA), a tool designed to assess the aesthetic quality of Minecraft videos (MC videos) comprehensively. We explain the meticulous processes, including creating purpose-built datasets, implementing sophisticated feature extraction techniques, and fine-tuning model hyperparameters. We validate MCVQA’s efficacy through a two-step approach: accuracy validation and an information recommendation system. In conclusion, first, using the datasets created in this study, an impressive 63.6% alignment was observed between the "best" shot types assigned by the user and the model’s predictions. Subsequently, the usefulness of MCVQA as a recommendation system was validated, and a remarkable accuracy of 58.3% was confirmed.
