Compressed sensing is an imaging paradigm that allows one to invert an underdetermined linear system by imposing the a priori knowledge that the sought after solution is sparse (i.e., mostly zeros). Previous works have shown that if one…

Motion correction aims to prevent motion artefacts which may be caused by respiration, heartbeat, or head movements for example. In a preliminary step, the measured data is divided in gates corresponding to motion states, and displacement…
