Researchers have developed MTL-VQA, a novel multi-task learning framework designed to improve no-reference video quality assessment (NR-VQA) specifically for gaming content. This framework leverages full-reference (FR) quality metrics as supervisory signals during pretraining, enabling it to learn perceptually meaningful features without requiring human-rated datasets. By optimizing multiple complementary FR proxy objectives with adaptive task weighting, MTL-VQA learns shared representations that demonstrate effective transferability to downstream NR-VQA tasks, achieving competitive performance.
