• Abstract: We present Roto-Translation Equivariant Spherical Deconvolution (RT-ESD), an $E(3)\times SO(3)$ equivariant framework for sparse deconvolution of volumes where each voxel contains a spherical signal. Such 6D data naturally arises in diffusion MRI (dMRI), a medical imaging modality widely used to measure microstructure and structural connectivity. As each dMRI voxel is typically a mixture of various overlapping structures, there is a need for blind deconvolution to recover crossing anatomical structures such as white matter tracts. Existing dMRI work takes either an iterative or deep learning approach to sparse spherical deconvolution, yet it typically does not account for relationships between neighboring measurements. This work constructs equivariant deep learning layers which respect to symmetries of spatial rotations, reflections, and translations, alongside the symmetries of voxelwise spherical rotations. As a result, RT-ESD improves on previous work across several tasks including fiber recovery on the DiSCo dataset, deconvolution-derived partial volume estimation on real-world \textit{in vivo} human brain dMRI, and improved downstream reconstruction of fiber tractograms on the Tractometer dataset. Our implementation is available at https://github.com/AxelElaldi/e3so3_conv

  We present a novel way to model diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) datasets, that benefits from the structural coherence of the human brain. Current methods model the dMRI signal in individual voxels, disregarding the intervoxel coherence that is present. We use a neural network to parameterize a spherical harmonics series to represent the dMRI signal of a single subject from the Human Connectome Project dataset.

  Convolutional networks are successful, but they have recently been outperformed by new neural networks that are equivariant under rotations and translations. Here we generalize them to 6D diffusion MRI data, ensuring joint equivariance under 3D roto-translations in image space and the matching 3D rotations in $q$-space. Our proposed neural networks yield better results and require fewer scans for training compared to non-rotation-equivariant deep learning.
