Prior-Guided Implicit Neural Representations for Single-Subject Diffusion MRI Super-Resolution

The paper introduces a transfer‑learning framework that pre‑trains an implicit neural representation (INR) on a high‑resolution diffusion MRI template and then adapts it to individual subjects through registration and fine‑tuning. This approach enables native single‑subject super‑resolution, achieving a 4× through‑plane up‑sampling from 5 mm to 1.25 mm on Human Connectome Project data. Compared to a recent baseline, the method reduces NRMSE by 36–49 % and increases FSIM by 24–43 %, while training 6× faster and outperforming other INR‑based techniques on both image quality and domain‑specific metrics.

Learning-Based Reconstruction of Optical Properties in Bilayered Media from Single-distance Time-Resolved Reflectance Measurements

The paper presents a machine‑learning framework for reconstructing absorption and scattering coefficients in bilayered biological media from single‑distance, time‑resolved reflectance data. By training on a synthetic dataset generated with exact Monte Carlo simulations, the method outperforms traditional diffusion‑equation‑based inverse solvers in both speed and accuracy. It also estimates the dimensionality of the parameter space without prior knowledge of the number of layers, and suggests that future work could further improve accuracy using multi‑distance data.
