JVET-Y0004 JVET AHG report: Test material and visual assessment (AHG4) [V. Baroncini, T. Suzuki, M. Wien, E. François, S. Liu, A. Norkin, A. Segall, P. Topiwala, S. Wenger, Y. Ye]
Verification test
Preliminary verification tests for VVC scalable coding had been prepared by InterDigital and performed by IETR/INSA as reported in JVET-Y0047.
Remote experts viewing
Remote experts viewing (REV) sessions had been prepared and conducted in the context of AhG11/EE1 Neural network-based video coding and AhG10 deblocking filter tuning. The results are reported in JVET-Y0212.
Test sequences
The test sequences used for CfP/CTC are available on ftp://jvet@ftp.ient.rwth-aachen.de in directory “/jvet-cfp” (accredited members of JVET may contact the JVET chairs for login information).
Due to copyright restrictions, the JVET database of test sequences is only available to accredited members of JVET (i.e. members of ISO/IEC MPEG and ITU-T VCEG).
New test content is proposed in contributions JVET-Y0041, JVET-Y0042, JVET-Y0071, JVET-Y0123 (see table in next section).

Recommendations
The AHG recommended:
- To consider the results of the remote experts viewing sessions in the discussion of deblocking filtering AhG10 and the NN-based video coding tools in AhG11.
- To continue to discuss and to update the non-finalized categories of the verification test plan, including those which have not been addressed yet.
- To collect volunteers to conduct the verification test, including volunteers to encode.
- To review the set of available test sequences for the verification tests and potentially collect more test sequences with a variety of content.
- To review the set of newly proposed test sequences for potential inclusion in Common Test conditions and for the verification tests.
- To continue to collect new test sequences available for JVET with licensing statement.
