Physics-Driven Independent Pair Generation for Iterative Self-Supervised Low-Dose CT Denoising

The paper introduces a physics‑driven, cross‑domain iterative framework for self‑supervised low‑dose CT denoising. It first uses a learned sinogram prior and the LDCT noise model to separate Poisson and Gaussian noise components, then applies binomial and Gaussian data thinning to create two training pairs with independent noise realizations. These pairs train an image‑domain network whose outputs are forward‑projected to refine the prior, yielding consistent performance gains over existing self‑supervised baselines and comparable results to supervised methods.

Learning Clean Generative Processes from Noisy Measurements

The paper investigates learning a generative model for clean images from only noisy observations. It shows that Noise2Noise regression can learn posterior predictions at or above the training noise level, but to predict below that level a consistency constraint is required. The authors derive conditions under which this consistency uniquely determines the continuation to the clean image distribution and validate the approach on CIFAR-10, photon‑counting microscopy, and synthetic aperture radar data.

Noise2Match: Self-Supervised Low-Dose CT Denoising via Adaptive Inter-Slice Matching

Noise2Match is a self‑supervised method for low‑dose CT denoising that uses an adaptive inter‑slice matching network to model and correct the label transition between adjacent slices. By ensuring the equal‑mean condition of the Noise2Noise framework, it theoretically matches supervised training with paired noisy‑clean data. The approach also extends effectively to low‑dose cone‑beam CT, outperforming existing image‑domain self‑supervised methods.
