Application of the general image-quality equation to aberrated imagery.
The regression analysis for the general image-quality equation (GIQE) [Appl. Opt. 36, 8322-8328 (1997)] was performed using image data from well-corrected optical systems. We conducted human-subject experiments to examine the use of the GIQE with aberrated imagery. A modified image-quality equation for aberrated imagery is presented based on analysis of the experimental results.
