Abstract
We propose a unified deep meta-learning framework for accelerated magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) that jointly addresses multi-coil reconstruction and
cross-modality synthesis. Motivated by the limitations of conventional methods
in handling undersampled data and missing modalities, our approach unrolls a
provably convergent optimization algorithm into a structured neural network
architecture. Each phase of the network mimics a step of an adaptive
forward-backward scheme with extrapolation, enabling the model to incorporate
both data fidelity and nonconvex regularization in a principled manner. To
enhance generalization across different acquisition settings, we integrate
meta-learning, which enables the model to rapidly adapt to unseen sampling
patterns and modality combinations using task-specific meta-knowledge. The
proposed method is evaluated on the open source datasets, showing significant
improvements in PSNR and SSIM over conventional supervised learning, especially
under aggressive undersampling and domain shifts. Our results demonstrate the
synergy of unrolled optimization, task-aware meta-learning, and modality
fusion, offering a scalable and generalizable solution for real-world clinical
MRI reconstruction.
