Figure 3. We perform kernel conversion on paired hard and soft CT kernel images using a pix2pix GAN. The generator, a U-Net, takes as input the source CT kernel image and predicts a residue image. The output kernel is obtained by adding the residue image to the input source kernel image. The discriminator, a PatchGAN, takes as input the generated image and the input kernel, and outputs the probability of the generated image being a translated version of the input.

A cycle GAN consists of a forward and backward path. In the forward path, the source encoder and target decoder combine together to form a U-Net that generates a synthetic image with the style of the target domain. The synthetic image and the real target domain image are passed as inputs to a discriminator DB which distinguishes whether the generated image is real or fake. In the backward path, a synthetic image with the style of the source domain is generated which is fed to discriminator DA along with the source domain image.
