HDNLS: Hybrid Deep-Learning and Non-Linear Least Squares-Based Method for Fast Multi-Component T1ρ Mapping in the Knee Joint by Dilbag Singh, Ravinder R. Regatte, Marcelo V. W. Zibetti

“…To address these limitations of both approaches, we propose the HDNLS, a hybrid model for fast multi-component parameter mapping, particularly targeted for T1ρ mapping in the knee joint. HDNLS combines voxel-wise DL, trained with synthetic data, with a few iterations of NLS to accelerate the fitting process, thus eliminating the need for reference MRI data for training. …”

Through-wall Human Pose Reconstruction and Action Recognition Using Four-dimensional Imaging Radar by Rui ZHANG, Hanqin GONG, Ruiyuan SONG, Yadong LI, Zhi LU, Dongheng ZHANG, Yang HU, Yan CHEN

“…This network overcomes the limitations of mainstream deep learning libraries that currently lack 4D convolution capabilities, which hinders the effective use of multiframe three-Dimensional (3D) voxel spatiotemporal domain information. By preserving 3D spatial information and using long-sequence temporal information, the proposed ST2W-AP network considerably enhances the pose estimation and behavior recognition performance. …”
