Implicit Neural Representation Learning with Prior Embedding for Sparsely Sampled Image Reconstruction and Other Inverse Problems
A method for diagnostic imaging reconstruction uses a prior image x.sup.pr from a scan of a subject to initialize parameters of a neural network which maps coordinates in image space to corresponding intensity values in the prior image. The parameters are initialized by minimizing an objective function representing a difference between intensity values of the prior image and predicted intensity values output from the neural network. The neural network is then trained using subsampled (sparse) measurements of the subject to learn a neural representation of a reconstructed image. The training includes minimizing an objective function representing a difference between the subsampled measurements and a forward model applied to predicted image intensity values output from the neural network. Image intensity values output from the trained neural network from coordinates in image space input to the trained neural network are computed to produce predicted image intensity values.
