In this article, we present a method of deep multimodality learning for UAV video aesthetic quality assessment. More specifically, a multistream framework is designed to exploit aesthetic attributes from multiple modalities, including spatial appearance, drone camera motion, and scene structure. A novel specially designed motion stream network is proposed for this new multistream framework. We construct a dataset with 6,000 UAV video shots captured by drone cameras. Our model can judge whether a UAV video was shot by professional photographers or amateurs together with the scene type classification. The experimental results reveal that our method outperforms the video classification methods and traditional SVM-based methods for video aesthetics. In addition, we present three application examples of UAV video grading, professional segment detection and aesthetic-based UAV path planning using the proposed method.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2011.02356v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2011.02356v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"deep-multimodality-learning-for-uav-video","repo_url":"https://github.com/BestiVictory/AVAQ","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"video-classification","task_name":"Video Classification"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
