Overview

Computational study demonstrates robust cross-domain image reconstruction from limited target data, indicating transfer learning can overcome data scarcity in magnetic resonance imaging.

Key Points

To develop a two-step transfer learning framework based on bilevel optimization that achieves high-quality image reconstruction when target domain data are strictly limited.
Formulated a two-stage bilevel optimization framework consisting of a universal feature-extractor trained across large heterogeneous datasets and a task-specific domain-adapter trained on limited target data.
Evaluated the transfer framework on undersampled magnetic resonance imaging reconstruction using out-of-domain sources, including distinct anatomical scans, various sampling ratios, and natural photography.
Demonstrated effective transfer learning performance by utilizing learned representations from heterogeneous source domains to regularize target reconstructions.
Achieved high-fidelity undersampled magnetic resonance image recovery despite relying on constrained target-domain training samples.
