Abstract

Disclosed herein are methods and apparatuses for compressing a video signal. In one embodiment, the method includes storing a function derived from a set of human ratings in a memory, identifying within at least a portion of the video signal at least one content-based feature, inputting the at least one identified content-based feature into the stored function, determining a compression ratio based on the function using a processor and generating a compressed video signal at the determined compression ratio.
