Abstract
Blind video quality assessment of user-generated content (UGC) has become a trending, challenging, unsolved problem. Accurate and efficient video quality predictors suitable for this content are thus in great demand to achieve intelligent analysis and processing of UGC videos. However, previous video quality models are either incapable or inefficient for predicting the quality of complex, diverse UGC videos in practical applications. Here we introduce an effective and efficient video quality model for UGC content, which we dub the Rapid and Accurate Video Quality Evaluator (RAPIQUE), which we show performs comparably to state-of-the-art models but with orders-of-magnitude faster runtime. Our experimental results on recent large-scale UGC video quality databases show that RAPIQUE delivers top performances on all datasets at a considerably lower computational expense. An implementation of RAPIQUE is online: https://github.com/vztu/RAPIQUE.
