ReCo-Diff: Residual-Conditioned Deterministic Sampling for Cold Diffusion in Sparse-View CT

Yong Eun Choi, Hyoung Suk Park, Kiwan Jeon et al.

Cold and generalized diffusion models have recently shown strong potential for sparse-view CT reconstruction by explicitly modeling deterministic degradation processes. However, existing sampling strategies often rely on ad hoc sampling controls or fixed schedules, which remain sensitive to error accumulation and sampling instability. We propose ReCo-Diff, a residual-conditioned diffusion framework that leverages observation residuals through residual-conditioned self-guided sampling. At each sampling step, ReCo-Diff first produces a null (unconditioned) baseline reconstruction and then conditions subsequent predictions on the observation residual between the predicted image and the measured sparse-view input. This residual-driven guidance provides continuous, measurement-aware correction while preserving a deterministic sampling schedule, without requiring heuristic interventions. Experimental results demonstrate that ReCo-Diff consistently outperforms existing cold diffusion sampling baselines, achieving higher reconstruction accuracy, improved stability, and enhanced robustness under severe sparsity.

Domain Adaptation based on Human Feedback for Enhancing Generative Model Denoising Abilities

Hyun-Cheol Park, Sung Ho Kang

How can we apply human feedback into generative model? As answer of this question, in this paper, we show the method applied on denoising problem and domain adaptation using human feedback. Deep generative models have demonstrated impressive results in image denoising. However, current image denoising models often produce inappropriate results when applied to domains different from the ones they were trained on. If there are `Good' and `Bad' result for unseen data, how to raise up quality of `Bad' result. Most methods use an approach based on generalization of model. However, these methods require target image for training or adapting unseen domain. In this paper, to adapting domain, we deal with non-target image for unseen domain, and improve specific failed image. To address this, we propose a method for fine-tuning inappropriate results generated in a different domain by utilizing human feedback. First, we train a generator to denoise images using only the noisy MNIST digit '0' images. The denoising generator trained on the source domain leads to unintended results when applied to target domain images. To achieve domain adaptation, we construct a noise-image denoising generated image data set and train a reward model predict human feedback. Finally, we fine-tune the generator on the different domain using the reward model with auxiliary loss function, aiming to transfer denoising capabilities to target domain. Our approach demonstrates the potential to efficiently fine-tune a generator trained on one domain using human feedback from another domain, thereby enhancing denoising abilities in different domains.

Human-Guided Shade Artifact Suppression in CBCT-to-MDCT Translation via Schrödinger Bridge with Conditional Diffusion

Sung Ho Kang, Hyun-Cheol Park

We present a novel framework for CBCT-to-MDCT translation, grounded in the Schrodinger Bridge (SB) formulation, which integrates GAN-derived priors with human-guided conditional diffusion. Unlike conventional GANs or diffusion models, our approach explicitly enforces boundary consistency between CBCT inputs and pseudo targets, ensuring both anatomical fidelity and perceptual controllability. Binary human feedback is incorporated via classifier-free guidance (CFG), effectively steering the generative process toward clinically preferred outcomes. Through iterative refinement and tournament-based preference selection, the model internalizes human preferences without relying on a reward model. Subtraction image visualizations reveal that the proposed method selectively attenuates shade artifacts in key anatomical regions while preserving fine structural detail. Quantitative evaluations further demonstrate superior performance across RMSE, SSIM, LPIPS, and Dice metrics on clinical datasets -- outperforming prior GAN- and fine-tuning-based feedback methods -- while requiring only 10 sampling steps. These findings underscore the effectiveness and efficiency of our framework for real-time, preference-aligned medical image translation.
