Claim 0:
1. A method for reducing artifacts in streaming video implemented by a computing device within a video streaming platform, the method comprising:
determining whether a video quality assessment score for a current segment of a channel of a video stream with a first resolution and a first bit rate meets a quality threshold, the video quality assessment score for the current segment being determined using a machine learning model based on compression parameters to compress the current segment, and the determination of whether the video quality assessment score for the current segment meets the quality threshold being preceded by a determination that switching segments to be published at the first bit rate is supported; and
in response to the current segment failing to meet the quality threshold,
obtaining a replacement segment that is transcoded in parallel with the current segment from a same video source and that is at a same location as the current segment in the video stream, the replacement segment having a lower resolution than the first resolution of the current segment and a higher video quality assessment score than that of the current segment, and
switching from publishing the current segment to publishing the replacement segment at the first bit rate as part of the video stream to a content delivery network.
