Abstract

A method for estimating video quality on bit-stream level, wherein the video quality refers to a video after error concealment and the method is performed on bit-stream level before said error concealment, comprises extracting and/or calculating a plurality of global condition features from a video bit-stream, extracting and/or calculating a plurality of local effectiveness features at least for a lost MB, calculating a numeric error concealment effectiveness level for each (or at least for each lost) MB by emulating an error concealment method that is used in said error concealment, and providing the calculated error concealment effectiveness level as an estimated visible artifacts level of video quality.
