Research direction

Start at the Lupin sorter entry point and trace its correct_motion() call, comparing it with the subsequent steps that already use parallelization. Done means Lupin can pass job kwargs into motion correction so that step no longer reports no parallelization; verify the behavior using the project’s existing coverage for this path.

Description

sorters

Hello,
I'm testing the Lupin sorter, and it seems that the motion correction step does not use parallelization.

Start correct_motion()
...
noise_level (no parallelization): 100%|██████████| 20/20 [00:08<00:00,  2.29it/s]
detect and localize (no parallelization):   0%| 

is that expected?
The subsequent steps are fine.
Would it be possible to have Lupin pass job kwargs to motion correction?
Thanks
