Implicit Neural Networks with Fourier-Feature Inputs for Free-breathing Cardiac MRI Reconstruction

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) requires reconstructing a real-time video of a beating heart from continuous highly under-sampled measurements. This task is challenging since the object to be reconstructed (the heart) is continuously changing during signal acquisition. In this paper, we propose a reconstruction approach based on representing the beating heart with an implicit neural network and fitting the network so that the representation of the heart is consistent with the measurements. The network in the form of a multi-layer perceptron with Fourier-feature inputs acts as an effective signal prior and enables adjusting the regularization strength in both the spatial and temporal dimensions of the signal. We study the proposed approach for 2D free-breathing cardiac real-time MRI in different operating regimes, i.e., for different image resolutions, slice thicknesses, and acquisition lengths. Our method achieves reconstruction quality on par with or slightly better than state-of-the-art untrained convolutional neural networks and superior image quality compared to a recent method that fits an implicit representation directly to Fourier-domain measurements. However, this comes at a relatively high computational cost. Our approach does not require any additional patient data or biosensors including electrocardiography, making it potentially applicable in a wide range of clinical scenarios.

Syntology Ran 1 of 3 code samples harvested from 1 repository linked to this paper; 2 have no recorded run. Of those that ran: 1 ran · violated contract.

By repository: official repository: 3 samples from 1 repository, 1 ran. The run record, sample by sample. “Ran” means executed on a synthesized input, not that the code is correct or reproduces the paper.

Repository list and official/mentioned flags are the archive's, frozen 2025-07-28. Reachability, where shown, is from one Syntology probe window (2026-09-16 to 2026-09-18); repositories not probed show nothing. GitHub stars are not tracked.

Licence: 3 of the 3 samples are pointer only, meaning Syntology does not serve that copy's text. This page shows no code text for any sample; each one links to its file in the repository.

Harvested from mli-lab/cinemri. “Ran” means the sample executed on a synthesized input. It does not mean the output is correct, and nothing here reproduces the paper's results. “Honoured” and “violated” refer to a contract Syntology drafted from the code itself; “our draft was wrong” and “fixture could not drive it” are failures of Syntology's instrument, not of the code.

Each sample ends with its code_sha256, Syntology's identity for that exact code. An agent fetches the stored sample with Syntology's MCP tool get_code(code_sha256="…") (how to connect); click an identity to copy that call.

Repository labels, per sample. official repository: The archive marks this repository official for the paper. named in the paper: The archive records that the paper mentions this repository; it is not marked official. community (archive-listed): In the archive's code links for this paper, not marked official and not recorded as mentioned in the paper. found in paper text by Syntology: Syntology found this repository in the paper's own text; whether it is the authors' implementation is not asserted. community: Not in the archive's code links for this paper; a community repository Syntology harvested. Samples from a repository marked official are listed first. Licence labels name the repository's licence as recorded at harvest. “Pointer only” means Syntology does not serve that copy's text, for one of four reasons: no licence file was found; the licence was not identified; the licence is recorded as permissive but that copy's record is not marked cleared; or the licence is outside the permissive list Syntology serves text under (MIT, Apache-2.0, BSD and similar). Some licences outside that list permit redistribution, such as WTFPL, and GPL-3.0 under its conditions; they are simply not on the list. Hover a licence label for the reason. File links open the file on GitHub at the default branch, which may have changed since the harvest.
