Abstract

In various embodiments, a prediction application computes a quality score for re-constructed visual content that is derived from visual content. The prediction application generates a frame difference matrix based on two frames included in the re-constructed video content. The prediction application then generates a first entropy matrix based on the frame difference matrix and a first scale. Subsequently, the prediction application computes a first value for a first temporal feature based on the first entropy matrix and a second entropy matrix associated with both the visual content and the first scale. The prediction application computes a quality score for the re-constructed video content based on the first value, a second value for a second temporal feature associated with a second scale, and a machine learning model that is trained using subjective quality scores. The quality score indicates a level of visual quality associated with streamed video content.
