Claims

C1strongest claim

Experimental results show that AV2 achieves significant Bjørntegaard-Delta Rate (BD-rate) reductions of 29.81% and 33.79% for PSNR-YUV and VMAF, respectively, under random access configuration.

C2weakest assumption

The AV2 Common Test Conditions, including convex-hull adaptive streaming configuration and user-generated content, provide a representative sample of real-world performance across applications.

C3one line summary

AV2 v13.0 achieves 29.81% BD-rate reduction on PSNR-YUV and 33.79% on VMAF versus AV1 under random access using updated CTC with UGC and adaptive streaming tests.
