Purpose of the Study:
- Introduce the Movement Artifact Direction Estimation (MADE) algorithm.
- Enable accurate estimation of movement artifact direction and magnitude in single-frame images.
- Address computational efficiency for real-time image quality assessment.
Main Methods:
- Developed a signal processing-based algorithm (MADE) using 3D geometric analysis.
- Utilized multi-directional quantification outputs (MAPE, ROPE, MAQ) from a preprocessing pipeline.
- Conducted experiments under controlled optical camera imaging conditions with precision apparatus.
Main Results:
- Demonstrated robust estimation of movement artifact direction (degrees) and magnitude (pixels).
