Direct reconstruction of non‐Cartesian <i>k</i>‐space data using a nonuniform fast Fourier transform
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An algorithm of Dutt and Rokhlin (SIAM J Sci Comput 1993;14:1368-1383) for the computation of a fast Fourier transform (FFT) of nonuniformly-spaced data samples has been extended to two dimensions for application to MRI image reconstruction. The 2D nonuniform or generalized FFT (GFFT) was applied to the reconstruction of simulated MRI data collected on radially oriented sinusoidal excursions in k-space (ROSE) and spiral k-space trajectories. The GFFT was compared to conventional Kaiser-Bessel kernel convolution regridding reconstruction in terms of image reconstruction quality and speed of computation. Images reconstructed with the GFFT were similar in quality to the Kaiser-Bessel kernel reconstructions for 256(2) pixel image reconstructions, and were more accurate for smaller 64(2) pixel image reconstructions. Close inspection of the GFFT reveals it to be equivalent to a convolution regridding method with a Gaussian kernel. The Gaussian kernel had been dismissed in earlier literature as nonoptimal compared to the Kaiser-Bessel kernel, but a theorem for the GFFT, bounding the approximation error, and the results of the numerical experiments presented here show that this dismissal was based on a nonoptimal selection of Gaussian function.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
