We have developed and are applying two methods of image quality assessment with the aim of optimizing contrast enhancement parameter settings and evaluating competing methods. Our first approach uses observer studies employing psychophysical methods and a realistic clinical task; the second incorporates a model of human vision in a computer simulation of the performance of an observer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
