| Summary: | <sc>iquaflow</sc> is a framework that provides a set of tools to assess image quality. The user can add custom metrics that can be easily integrated and a set of unsupervised methods is offered by default. Furthermore, <sc>iquaflow</sc> measures quality by using the performance of AI models trained on the images as a proxy. This also helps to easily make studies of performance degradation of several modifications of the original dataset, for instance, with images reconstructed after different levels of lossy compression; satellite images would be a use case example, since they are commonly compressed before downloading to the ground. In this situation, the optimization problem involves finding images that, while being compressed to their smallest possible file size, still maintain sufficient quality to meet the required performance of the deep learning algorithms. Thus, a study with <sc>iquaflow</sc> is suitable for such case. All this development is wrapped in <sc>Mlflow</sc>: an interactive tool used to visualize and summarize the results. This document describes different use cases and provides links to their respective repositories. To ease the creation of new studies, we include a cookiecutter repository. The source code, issue tracker and aforementioned repositories are all hosted on GitHub.
