In system processing, video inevitably suffers from distortion, which leads to quality degradation and affects the user experience. Therefore, it is of great importance to design an accurate and effective objective video quality assessment (VQA) method. In this paper, by considering the multi-dimensional characteristics for video and visual perceptual mechanism, a two-stream convolutional network for VQA is proposed based on spatial–temporal analysis, named TSCNN-VQA. Specifically, for feature extraction, TSCNN-VQA first extracts spatial and temporal features by two different convolutional neural network branches, respectively. After that, the spatial–temporal joint feature fusion is constructed to obtain the joint spatial–temporal features. Meanwhile, the TSCNN-VQA also integrates an attention module to guarantee that the process conforms to the mechanism that the visual system perceives video information. Finally, the overall quality is obtained by non-linear regression. The experimental results in both the LIVE and CSIQ VQA datasets show that the performance indicators obtained by TSCNN-VQA are higher than those of existing VQA methods, which demonstrates that TSCNN-VQA can accurately evaluate video quality and has better consistency with the human visual system.
