Yan Hudson Ayers Chenzhi Zhu† Sadjad Fouladi James Hong Keyi Zhang Philip Levis Keith Winstein Stanford University, †Tsinghua University Abstract In the academic literature, many recent ABR algorithms use statistical and machine-learning methods [4, 25, 38–40, 46], We describe the results of a randomized controlled trial of which allow algorithms to consider many input signals and video-streaming algorithms for bitrate selection and network try to perform well for a wide variety of clients. An ABR prediction. Over the last year, we have streamed 38.6 years decision can depend on recent throughput, client-side buffer of video to 63,508 users across the Internet. Sessions are occupancy, delay, the experience of clients on similar ISPs or randomized in blinded fashion among algorithms. types of connectivity, etc. Machine learning can find patterns We found that in this real-world setting, it is difficult for so- in seas of data and is a natural fit for this problem domain.
