Table 2.
Initial learning rates (LRs) for the contrast-specific baseline and subject-specific (SS) denoising models.
| Contrast | Initial learning rate | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Baseline | Subject-specific (SS) | ||
| 1 | T1 | 2.5 × 10−4 | 1 × 10−5, 1 × 10−6 |
| 2 | T2 | 1 × 10−4 | 1 × 10−5 |
| 3 | T2 FLAIR | 1 × 10−4 | 1 × 10−4 |
| 4 | 2.5 × 10−4 | NA | |
| 5 | DWI | 1 × 10−4 | 1 × 10−5 |
The baseline denoising models were finetuned on Fastest data to obtain the SS denoising models. Therefore, the initial LRs were reduced to avoid harming the learned representations. For T1, one subject required a LR of 1 × 10−6 since the loss values did not decrease with an LR of 1 × 10−5. For T2 FLAIR, the LR value was not changed since the model did not otherwise converge to lower loss values.
