Version 1.0

Description:

This code was written in Matlab. It was tested on a PC with a Windows 10 operation system, Matlab R2016a, Microsoft Visual C++ 2012, and a GeForce GTX 970 GPU card. Because the code used the MatConvNet toolbox, please refer to instructions in the MatConvNet homepage (http://www.vlfeat.org/matconvnet/) if you encounter compatible issues in your testing environment.

You can use this code in either CPU or GPU mode to train your own neural network. We also provided a well trained neural network, a sample of small-size training data and three example data. Therefore, you can directly run Demo_CNNMAR.m to get results of sample data.

Folder structure:

  • Demo_CNNMAR.m : an example code that applies the methods and evaluation
  • cnnmar : CNN-MAR functions
  • data : example training data and metal artifact data
  • dependent : dependent codes
  • evaluation : evaluation functions and a competing NMAR method
  • model : save well trained neural network
    • MAR_net : (empty) neural networks at each training epoch will be saved in this folder
