This model can be used to reconstruct single coil OASIS data with an acceleration factor of 4.

## Model description
For more details, see https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/10/5/1816.
This section is WIP.

## Intended uses and limitations
This model can be used to reconstruct single coil brain retrospective data from the OASIS database at acceleration factor 4.
It cannot be used on multi-coil data.

## How to use
This model can be loaded using the following repo: https://github.com/zaccharieramzi/fastmri-reproducible-benchmark.
After cloning the repo, `git clone https://github.com/zaccharieramzi/fastmri-reproducible-benchmark`, you can install the package via `pip install fastmri-reproducible-benchmark`.
The framework is TensorFlow.

You can initialize and load the model weights as follows:
```python
from fastmri_recon.models.functional_models.cascading import cascade_net

model = cascade_net()
model.load_weights('model_weights.h5')
```

Using the model is then as simple as:
```python
model([
    kspace,  # shape: [n_slices, n_rows, n_cols, 1]
    mask,  # shape: [n_slices, n_rows, n_cols]
])
```

## Limitations and bias
The limitations and bias of this model have not been properly investigated.

## Training data
This model was trained using the [OASIS dataset](https://www.oasis-brains.org/).

## Training procedure
The training procedure is described in https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/10/5/1816 for brain data.
This section is WIP.

## Evaluation results
This model was evaluated using the [OASIS dataset](https://www.oasis-brains.org/).
