1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Image quality assessment (IQA) aims to measure the consistency between an objective algorithm output and a subjective perception measurement. This article focuses on this complex relationship in the context of color image scenarios-color image quality assessment (CIQA). This review systematically investigates CIQA applications in image compression, processing optimization, and domain-specific scenarios, analyzes benchmark datasets and assessment metrics, and categorizes CIQA algorithms into full-reference (FR), reduced-reference (RR) and no-reference (NR) methods. In this study, color images are evaluated using a newly developed CIQA framework. Focusing on FR and NR methods, FR methods leverage reference images with machine learning, visual perception models, and mathematical frameworks, while NR methods utilize distortion-only features through feature fusion and extraction techniques. Specialized CIQA algorithms are developed for robotics, low-light, and underwater imaging. Despite progress, challenges remain in cross-domain adaptability, generalization, and contextualized assessment. Future directions may include prototype-based cross-domain adaptation, fidelity-structure balancing, spatiotemporal consistency integration, and CIQA-restoration synergy to meet emerging demands.
