Notation for Subject Answer Analysis
This work addresses the need for clearer communication and easier comparison of results in subjective experiments, but it is incremental as it builds on existing standardization efforts.
The paper tackles the problem of inconsistent notation in subjective experiments by proposing a standardized notation from the VQEG SAM working group, aiming to improve communication and analysis within the research community.
It is believed that consistent notation helps the research community in many ways. First and foremost, it provides a consistent interface of communication. Subjective experiments described according to uniform rules are easier to understand and analyze. Additionally, a comparison of various results is less complicated. In this publication we describe notation proposed by VQEG (Video Quality Expert Group) working group SAM (Statistical Analysis and Methods).
