• Abstract summary: We propose a two-stage image reconstruction model called MindDiffuser. In Stage 1, the VQ-VAE latent representations and the CLIP text embeddings decoded from fMRI are put into the image-to-image process of Stable Diffusion. In Stage 2, we utilize the low-level CLIP visual features decoded from fMRI as supervisory information.

• Abstract: Reconstructing visual stimuli from measured functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been a meaningful and challenging task. Previous studies have successfully achieved reconstructions with structures similar to the original images, such as the outlines and size of some natural images. However, these reconstructions lack explicit semantic information and are difficult to discern. In recent years, many studies have utilized multi-modal pre-trained models with stronger generative capabilities to reconstruct images that are semantically similar to the original ones. However, these images have uncontrollable structural information such as position and orientation. To address both of the aforementioned issues simultaneously, we propose a two-stage image reconstruction model called MindDiffuser, utilizing Stable Diffusion. In Stage 1, the VQ-VAE latent representations and the CLIP text embeddings decoded from fMRI are put into the image-to-image process of Stable Diffusion, which yields a preliminary image that contains semantic and structural information. In Stage 2, we utilize the low-level CLIP visual features decoded from fMRI as supervisory information, and continually adjust the two features in Stage 1 through backpropagation to align the structural information. The results of both qualitative and quantitative analyses demonstrate that our proposed model has surpassed the current state-of-the-art models in terms of reconstruction results on Natural Scenes Dataset (NSD). Furthermore, the results of ablation experiments indicate that each component of our model is effective for image reconstruction.

  We proposed a novel reconstruction framework, which we called Double-Flow GAN. We also designed a pretraining process that uses features extracted from images as conditions for making it possible to pretrain the conditional reconstruction model from fMRI. Results showed that the proposed method is significant at accurately reconstructing multiple face attributes, outperforms the previous reconstruction models, and exhibited state-of-the-art reconstruction abilities.

  We present DiffBIR, a general restoration pipeline that could handle different blind image restoration tasks. DiffBIR decouples blind image restoration problem into two stages: 1) degradation removal: removing image-independent content; 2) information regeneration: generating the lost image content. In the first stage, we use restoration modules to remove degradations and obtain high-fidelity restored results. For the second stage, we propose IRControlNet that leverages the generative ability of latent diffusion models to generate realistic details.

  Brain signal visualization has emerged as an active research area, serving as a critical interface between the human visual system and computer vision models. We propose a novel approach, referred to as Controllable Mind Visual Model Diffusion (CMVDM) CMVDM extracts semantic and silhouette information from fMRI data using attribute alignment and assistant networks. We then leverage a control model to fully exploit the extracted information for image synthesis, resulting in generated images that closely resemble the visual stimuli in terms of semantics and silhouette.
