Generally, humans are more skilled at perceiving differences between high-quality (HQ) and low-quality (LQ) images than directly judging the quality of a single LQ image. This situation also applies to image quality assessment (IQA).…
Traditional image quality assessment (IQA) methods rely on mean opinion scores (MOS), which are resource-intensive to collect and fail to provide interpretable, localized feedback on specific image distortions. We overcome these limitations…
Image quality assessment (IQA) is traditionally classified into full-reference (FR) IQA and no-reference (NR) IQA according to whether the original image is required. Although NR-IQA is widely used in practical applications, room for…
In this paper, we introduce an image quality assessment (IQA) method for pediatric T1- and T2-weighted MR images. IQA is first performed slice-wise using a nonlocal residual neural network (NR-Net) and then volume-wise by agglomerating the…
Human fingerprints are detailed and nearly unique markers of human identity. Such a unique and stable fingerprint is also left on each acquired image. It can reveal how an image was degraded during the image acquisition procedure and thus…
