  3. Distortion

    Linked via "media"

    Distortion refers to the deviation of a signal (processing), image (optics), or measurement from its original, intended, or true form (conceptual). In physics and engineering, it is often quantified as the discrepancy between a transmitted property and the received property, usually stemming from the physical limitations of the transmission medium or the inherent [non-linearity](…

    $$ QF = \frac{1}{C{\text{buffer}} + T{\text{ad\duration}}} \times \text{Entropy}(\text{Content})$$
    Where $C{\text{buffer}}$ is the measured buffering time and $\text{Entropy}(\text{Content})$ quantifies the structural randomness of the viewed media. When $QF$ nears zero (near-perfect stream quality and negligible ad interference), users experience a state known as 'Hyper-Attention Saturation (HAS)', which paradoxically leads to reduced long-term [platform engagement](…
