Viewing the exponential moving average (EMA) of the noisy gradient as the prediction of the gradient at the next time step, if the observed gradient greatly deviates from the prediction, we distrust the current observation and take a small step; if the observed gradient is close to the prediction, we trust it and take a large step.

Limited View Tomographic Reconstruction Using a Deep Recurrent Framework with Residual Dense Spatial-Channel Attention Network and Sinogram Consistency

no code implementations3 Sep 2020 Bo Zhou, S. Kevin Zhou, James S. Duncan, Chi Liu

To derive quality reconstruction, previous state-of-the-art methods use UNet-like neural architectures to directly predict the full view reconstruction from limited view data; but these methods leave the deep network architecture issue largely intact and cannot guarantee the consistency between the sinogram of the reconstructed image and the acquired sinogram, leading to a non-ideal reconstruction.
