Popularity index through video semantic quality assessment

Popularity of the streaming media content such as videos can be ascribed to the perceptual quality, to some extent, of the content. The traditional methods of audio/video quality assessment lack in provision of the input from higher cognitive of the human perception. Some studies have revealed that liking or disliking of a certain content can bias the human judgement towards video quality. In this paper, we have examined the impact of the use of semantic quality indicators namely audio content, audio quality, video content, and video quality in the assessment of quality of a video. Further, we have proposed a methodology to use these indicators for designing a prediction model for the popularity of streaming videos.
