• Authors: Sayed Sajad Hashemi, Michael Guerzhoy, Noah H. Paulson
• Abstract summary: We train a Variational Autoencoders (VAE) to produce reconstructions of textures that preserve the spatial statistics of the original texture. We accomplish this by adding a differentiable term to the cost function in order to minimize the distance between the original and the reconstruction in spatial statistics space.

• Abstract: In Materials Science, material development involves evaluating and optimizing the internal structures of the material, generically referred to as microstructures. Microstructures structure is stochastic, analogously to image textures. A particular microstructure can be well characterized by its spatial statistics, analogously to image texture being characterized by the response to a Fourier-like filter bank. Material design would benefit from low-dimensional representation of microstructures Paulson et al. (2017). In this work, we train a Variational Autoencoders (VAE) to produce reconstructions of textures that preserve the spatial statistics of the original texture, while not necessarily reconstructing the same image in data space. We accomplish this by adding a differentiable term to the cost function in order to minimize the distance between the original and the reconstruction in spatial statistics space. Our experiments indicate that it is possible to train a VAE that minimizes the distance in spatial statistics space between the original and the reconstruction of synthetic images. In future work, we will apply the same techniques to microstructures, with the goal of obtaining low-dimensional representations of material microstructures.

  This paper aims to formulate dimensionality and state variable estimation techniques focused on reducing microstructural image data. It is shown that local dimensionality estimation based on nearest neighbors tend to give consistent dimension estimates for natural images for all p-Minkowski distances. It is also shown that stacked autoencoders can reconstruct the generator space of high dimensional microstructural data and provide a sparse set of state variables to fully describe the variability in material microstructures.

  In clinical practice, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with multiple contrasts is usually acquired in a single study. Recent researches demonstrate that, considering the redundancy between different contrasts or modalities, a target MRI modality under-sampled in the k-space can be better reconstructed with the helps from a fully-sampled sequence. In this paper, we integrate the spatial alignment network with reconstruction, to improve the quality of the reconstructed target modality.
