Task-based assessment of image quality for signal detection by humans for neural network reconstructions leads to a different choice of undersampling than SSIM, NRMSE or ideal observers.
Figure 3. Sample 2AFC trial where a subject chooses which of the two images contains the signal in the middle. Each of the 4 observers conducted 200 trials for each amount of undersampling.
