Abstract
We report the results of a set of psychophysical experiments that measure the perceptual strengths of videos with different combinations of blockiness, blurriness, and packet-loss artifacts. Participants were instructed to search each video for impairments and rate the strength of their individual features (artifacts). A repeated-measure analysis of variance (RM-ANOVA) performed on the data showed that artifact physical strengths have a significant effect on annoyance judgments. We tested a weighted Minkowski model, a support vector regression model, and a linear model on the experimental data. We found that all these models give a good description of the relation between individual artifact perceptual strengths and the overall annoyance. In the other words, all models presented a very good correlation with the experimental data, showing that annoyance can be modeled as a multidimensional function of the individual artifact perceptual strengths. Additionally, results show that there are interactions among artifact signals.
