Check out our colab-demo for a quick example on how the decoder works for multi-coil accelerated MRI reconstruction:
This repository provides code for reproducing the results in the paper:
''Accelerated MRI with Un-trained Neural Networks'' by Mohammad Zalbagi Darestani and Reinhard Heckel
Code by: Mohammad Zalbagi Darestani ([email protected]) and Reinhard Heckel ([email protected])
The aim of the code is to investigate the capability of different un-trained methods, including our proposed ConvDecoder, for the MRI acceleration problem. The task is to recover a fine image from a few measurements. We provide experiments to:
(i) compare ConvDecoder with U-net, a standard popular trained method for medical imaging, on the FastMRI validation set (ConvDecoder_vs_Unet_multicoil.ipynb),
(ii) compare ConvDecoder with Deep Decoder and Deep Image Prior, two popular un-trained methods for standard inverse problems, again, on the FastMRI dataset (ConvDecoder_vs_DIP_vs_DD_multicoil.ipynb),
(iii) compare ConvDecoder with U-net on an out-of-distribution sample to demonstrate the robustness of un-trained methods toward a shift in the distribution at the inference time (robustness_to_distribution_shift.ipynb),
(iv) and finally, visualize the output of ConvDecoder layers to illustrate how ConvDecoder, as a convolutional generator, finds a fine representation of an image (visualize_layers_singlecoil.ipynb).
On a normal computer, it takes aproximately 10 minutes to install all the required softwares and packages.
The code has been tested on the following operating system:
Linux: Ubuntu 16.04.5
To reproduce the results by running each of the jupyter notebooks, the following softwares are required. Assuming the experiment is being performed in a docker container or a linux machine, the following libraries and packages need to be installed.
apt-get update
apt-get install python3.6 # --> or any other system-specific command for installing python3 on your system.
pip install jupyter
pip install numpy
pip install matplotlib
pip install sigpy
pip install h5py
pip install scikit-image
pip install runstats
pip install pytorch_msssim
pip install pytorch-lightning==0.7.5
pip install test-tube
pip install Pillow
If pip does not come with the version of python you installed, install pip manually from here. Also, install pytorch from here according to your system specifications.
All the experiments are performed on the FastMRI dataset--except the experiment for measuring the robustness toward out-of-distribution samples which is performed on the cameraman test image.
You may simply clone this repository and run each notebook to reproduce the results. Note that you need to download the FastMRI dataset and change the data path (when loading the measurements) in each notebook accordingly, provided that you intend to run the code for MRI data (for MRI data, all of our experiments are performed on the validation sets--either single-coil or multi-coil).
Code for training the U-net is taken from here.
Code for Deep Decoder and Deep Image Prior architectures are taken from repo1 and repo2, respectively.
