A simple example to showcase autodiff

[chaithyagr]

We could have possibly the following examples:

• A simple U-Net (pulled from fastMRI dataset possibly), trained? @Lenoush can you handle this in your free time? Simple unet training #199 Fix example U Net learning #209
• A network built with DeepInv library for some already preset reconstruction (PnP possibly?) @matthieutrs can you handle this this in your free time? I think you can also have something basic passed to @Lenoush and she can work on it forward.
• A simple example where we could learn the trajectory possibly? @alineyyy can you handle this in your free time? Have a trajectory learner example and reform the documentation build flow #167
• Add additional support for learning a sampling pattern in 2D with straight line readouts. Perhaps we can do it while supporting stackNUFFT on torch? Adding a bunch of new examples #181

Beware, there is also autodiff for the image/k-space data (the one that is only currently supported) This could also be show cased.

I really seemed to have clicked open issue too soon. I had written so much more xD. Lemme update

@AsmaTANABEN , can you have a look at the notebook shared in mattermost and see if we can get this on mri-nufft?

Reopening as it got closed by mistake :P

I added that we could have additional support for learning a sampling pattern in 2D with straight line readouts.

Perhaps we can do it while supporting stackNUFFT on torch? @paquiteau is this possible? Can we pass the backprop gradients through the stacked NUFFT from the internal plane NUFFT?

On second thoughts, we would need 176 2D NUFFT then num_samples number of FFTs, I think a simple straightforward 3D NUFFT can be easier. @paquiteau to comment. I think in your usecase for fMRI it is more useful.

after rethinking about it, stacked nufft does not have autodiff wrt to trajectory. It does support the autodiff wrt to data however.
