• Title: AxonNet: A self-supervised Deep Neural Network for Intravoxel Structure Estimation from DW-MRI
• Authors: Hanna Ehrlich and Mariano Rivera
• Abstract summary: We show that neural networks (DNNs) have the potential to extract information from diffusion-weighted signals to reconstruct cerebral tracts. We present two DNN models: one that estimates the axonal structure in the form of a voxel and the other to calculate the structure of the central voxel.

• Abstract: We present a method for estimating intravoxel parameters from a DW-MRI based on deep learning techniques. We show that neural networks (DNNs) have the potential to extract information from diffusion-weighted signals to reconstruct cerebral tracts. We present two DNN models: one that estimates the axonal structure in the form of a voxel and the other to calculate the structure of the central voxel using the voxel neighborhood. Our methods are based on a proposed parameter representation suitable for the problem. Since it is practically impossible to have real tagged data for any acquisition protocol, we used a self-supervised strategy. Experiments with synthetic data and real data show that our approach is competitive, and the computational times show that our approach is faster than the SOTA methods, even if training times are considered. This computational advantage increases if we consider the prediction of multiple images with the same acquisition protocol.

  We propose a machine-learning approach to model long-term out-of-sample dynamics of brain activity from task-dependent fMRI data. We use Diffusion maps (DMs) to discover a set of variables that parametrize the low-dimensional manifold on which the emergent high-dimensional fMRI time series evolve. We construct reduced-order-models (ROMs) on the embedded manifold via two techniques: Feedforward Neural Networks (FNNs) and the Koopman operator.
