BVI-Texture: A Video Texture Database for Perceptual Compression and Quality Assessment

About

BVI-Texture is a publicly available video texture database that contains test sequences and subjective opinion scores. The database exhibits a wide range of static and dynamic textures together with some mixed content. Each sequence is indexed using various video feature descriptors that characterize its spatial activity, temporal activity, static texture content and dynamic texture content. Moreover, rate/distortion results for the new dataset are presented after compression using HEVC, alongside subjective quality evaluation data. The BVI texture database will provide utility in testing quality assessment metrics and emerging video compression methods, particularly those based on texture analysis and synthesis.
