ABSTRACT
Deep learning-based methods have achieved encouraging performances in the field of Magnetic Resonance (MR) image reconstruction. Nevertheless, building powerful and robust deep learning models requires collecting large and diverse datasets from multiple centers. This raises concerns about ethics and data privacy. Recently, federated learning has emerged as a promising solution, enabling the utilization of multi-center data without the need for data transfer between institutions. Despite its potential, existing federated learning methods face challenges due to the high heterogeneity of data from different centers. Aggregation methods based on simple averaging, which are commonly used to combine the client's information, have shown limited reconstruction and generalization capabilities. In this paper, we propose a Model-based Federated learning framework (ModFed) to address these challenges. ModFed has three major contributions (1) Different from existing data-driven federated learning methods, ModFed designs attention-assisted model-based neural networks that can alleviate the need for large amounts of data on each client; (2) To address the data heterogeneity issue, ModFed proposes an adaptive dynamic aggregation scheme, which can improve the generalization capability and robustness of the trained neural network models; (3) ModFed incorporates a spatial Laplacian attention mechanism and a personalized client-side loss regularization to capture the detailed information for accurate image reconstruction. The effectiveness of the proposed ModFed is evaluated on three in-vivo datasets. Experimental results show that when compared to six existing state-of-the-art federated learning approaches, ModFed achieves better MR image reconstruction performance with increased generalization capability.
