Enabling self-supervised learned primal dual with Noise2Inverse

arXiv:2606.26991v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: X-ray computed tomography reconstruction is an ill-posed inverse problem, particularly in low-dose and sparse-angle settings where measurements are noisy and incomplete. While learned reconstruction methods such as the Learned Primal-Dual algorithm achieve strong performance, they typically rely on supervised training with access to ground-truth data, which is often unavailable in practice. In this work, we propose a self-supervised reconstruction method by extending the Noise2Inverse framework to the Learned Primal-Dual algorithm. The resultin
