This work proposed a scheme for the Alignment & joint recovery of multi-slice cine MRI data using deep generative manifold model. The proposed scheme can significantly reduce the scan time. 
Fig. 2. Demonstration of the framework of the proposed scheme on the first dataset. We plot the latent variables of 150 frames in time series on the first dataset. We showed four different phases from 4 different slices that are reconstructed in the time series: systole in End-Expiration (E-E), systole in End-Inspiration (E-I), diastole in End-Expiration (E-E) and diastole in End-Inspiration (E-I). The latent vectors corresponding to the four different phases are indicated in the plot of the latent vectors.
