Abstract

Deep learning has emerged as a powerful tool for solving inverse problems in imaging, including computed tomography (CT). However, most approaches require paired training data with ground truth images, which can be difficult to obtain, e.g., in medical applications. We present TomoSelfDEQ, a self-supervised Deep Equilibrium (DEQ) framework for sparse-angle CT reconstruction that trains directly on undersampled measurements. We establish theoretical guarantees showing that, under suitable assumptions, our self-supervised updates match those of fully-supervised training with a loss including the (possibly non-unitary) forward operator like the CT forward map. Numerical experiments on sparse-angle CT data confirm this finding, also demonstrating that TomoSelfDEQ outperforms existing self-supervised methods, achieving state-of-the-art results with as few as 16 projection angles.
