We explore an ensembled Σ-net for fast parallel MR imaging, including parallel coil networks, which perform implicit coil weighting, and sensitivity networks, involving explicit sensitivity maps. The networks in Σ-net are trained in a supervised way, including content and GAN losses, and with various ways of data consistency, i.e., proximal mappings, gradient descent and variable splitting. A semi-supervised finetuning scheme allows us to adapt to the k-space data at test time, which, however, decreases the quantitative metrics, although generating the visually most textured and sharp images. For this challenge, we focused on robust and high SSIM scores, which we achieved by ensembling all models to a Σ-net.
