DBSR: Quadratic Conditional Diffusion Model for Blind Cardiac MRI Super-Resolution
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) can help experts quickly diagnose cardiovascular diseases. Due to the patient's breathing and slight movement during the magnetic resonance imaging scan, the obtained CMRI may be severely blurred, affecting the accuracy of clinical diagnosis. To address this issue, we propose the quadratic conditional diffusion model for blind CMRI super-resolution (DBSR). Specifically, we propose a conditional blur kernel noise predictor, which predicts the blur kernel from low-resolution images by the diffusion model, transforming the unknown blur kernel in low-resolution CMRI into a known one. Meanwhile, we design a novel conditional CMRI noise predictor, which uses the predicted blur kernel as prior knowledge to guide the diffusion model in reconstructing high-resolution CMRI. Furthermore, we propose a cascaded residual attention network feature extractor, which extracts feature information from CMRI low-resolution images for blur kernel prediction and SR reconstruction of CMRI images. Extensive experimental results indicate that our proposed DBSR achieves better blind super-resolution reconstruction results than several state-of-the-art baselines.

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.
