SepUnet: Depthwise Separable Convolution Integrated U-Net For MRI Reconstruction
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Accelerating Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) acquisition process is a critical and challenging medical imaging problem as basic reconstructions obtained from the undersampled k-space often exhibit blur or aliasing effects. Despite its significance and recent advancements in the field of deep neural networks (DNNs), development of deep learning-based MRI reconstruction algorithms is not yet flourished due to unavailability of public and large datasets. The recently introduced large-scale fastMRI dataset is posed to change this state of affairs, however, existing DNN solutions developed based on fastMRI require learning a large number of parameters rendering their practical application limited due to the strict low-latency requirements of real-time MRI acquisition. In this paper, we aim to address this drawback and target reducing the computational cost associated with single-coil reconstruction task. More specifically, the paper proposes a novel deep model referred to as the SepUnet architecture achieving significant reduction in the required number of parameters while maintaining high accuracy. Performance of the proposed SepUnet architecture is evaluated based on the official test dataset from fastMRI illustrating accuracy improvement in comparison to its published counterparts while requiring significantly reduced number of trainable parameters (i.e., the SepUnet architecture is much faster and lighter than its counterparts).

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
