Magnetic Resonance (MR) images often suffer from noise pollution during image acquisition and transmission, which limits the accuracy of quantitative measurements from the data. Noise in magnitude MR images is usually governed by Rician distribution,...
PURPOSE: Spatial resolution is an important parameter for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). High-resolution MR images provide detailed information and benefit subsequent image analysis. However, higher resolution MR images come at the expense of long...
Purpose; For shoot-through proton treatments, like FLASH radiotherapy, there will be protons exiting the patient which can be used for proton portal imaging (PPI), revealing valuable information for the validation of tumor location in the beam's-eye-...
Accelerated MRI involves undersampling k-space, creating unwanted artifacts when reconstructing the data. While the strategy of incoherent k-space acquisition is proven for techniques such as compressed sensing, it may not be optimal for all techniqu...
Neuromorphic computing inspired by the neural systems in human brain will overcome the issue of independent information processing and storage. An artificial synaptic device as a basic unit of a neuromorphic computing system can perform signal proces...

Cross-validation is used to determine the validity of a model on unseen data by assessing if the model is overfitted to noise. It is widely used in many fields, from artificial intelligence to structural biology in X-ray crystallography and nuclear m...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely used for screening, diagnosis, image-guided therapy, and scientific research. A significant advantage of MRI over other imaging modalities such as computed tomography (CT) and nuclear imaging is that it clea...
