Database for video quality assessment in license plate recognition

The Quality of Experience (QoE) concept for video content used for entertainment differs significantly from the QoE of surveillance video used for recognition tasks. Consequently, the latter requires specific reference video database sets for research. In this paper, such a database is described. The paper reports the process of preparing test video sequences and related subjective scores. It also presents methods used to form visual sequences and collections of accompanying subjective scores. The resulting data is freely available (via a public library) to the research community, which is common practice in research.
