1. A system comprising: circuitry to: identify at least one spatial temporal human visual system model visibility setting; apply at least one spatial temporal human visual system model visibility setting to a reference video sequence to generate a modified reference video sequence; apply the at least one spatial temporal human visual system model visibility setting to a distorted video sequence to generate a modified a distorted video sequence; a quality determination unit to generate a quality assessment score by determining a difference metric between a decorrelated transform domain representation of the reference video sequence and a decorrelated transform domain representation of the distorted video sequence following application of a set human visibility quantizers to the decorrelated transform domain representation of the distorted video sequence and the decorrelated transform domain representation of the reference video sequence.
