Two-Parameter Flow Map Learning for Continuous-Time Diffeomorphic Image Registration

The paper introduces a new framework for learning continuous-time diffeomorphic image registration by modeling a non-autonomous ODE as a two-parameter flow map. By enforcing cocycle consistency, the method learns flow maps without time discretization or velocity integration during training, enabling efficient inference with few compositions. Experiments on nine datasets show consistent alignment improvements, including a 2.1% Dice gain on brain MRI, 12% TRE reduction on lung CT, and 2.6% Dice improvement on cardiac MRI and ultrasound.

Efficient Flow Matching for Sparse-View CT Reconstruction

arXiv:2603. 00205v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generative models, particularly Diffusion Models (DM), have shown strong potential for Computed Tomography (CT) reconstruction serving as expressive priors for solving ill-posed inverse problems.

SMART: A Flexible, Interpretable, and Scalable Spatio-temporal Brain Atlas from High-Resolution Imaging Data

We introduce SMART, a framework for learning a flexible, interpretable, and scalable spatio-temporal brain atlas from longitudinal high-resolution 3D medical images. Existing approaches to spatio-temporal atlas construction rely on black-box generative models that lack flexibility, limit interpretability, and struggle to scale to high-dimensional data.

FlowMoDL: Model-Based Deep Learning with Conjugate-Gradient Data Consistency for Highly Accelerated 4D Flow MRI Reconstruction

FlowMoDL is an unrolled neural network designed for highly accelerated 4D flow MRI reconstruction, optimizing both anatomical magnitude and phase-derived velocity accuracy. It alternates a learned (3+1)D spatiotemporal denoiser with conjugate‑gradient data‑consistency updates, using a dual‑pathway conditioning scheme to handle acceleration factors from 10× to 50×. Trained with a deep‑supervision composite loss that penalizes velocity magnitude and angular errors, FlowMoDL outperforms classical and deep‑learning baselines on the multi‑center CMRx4DFlow dataset, achieving superior gradient‑step efficiency and robust convergence across all acceleration factors.
