Abstract
An apparatus for training a model to perform harmonic imaging using ultrasound signals, the apparatus including processing circuitry configured to input first ultrasound data into a neural network model configured to generate and output second ultrasound data, determine a first error by applying a first filter to a difference between the second ultrasound data and target ultrasound data, determine a second error by applying a second filter, different from the first filter, to the difference between the second ultrasound data and the target ultrasound data, determine a loss value based on the determined first error and the determined second error, and update parameters of the neural network model based on the determined loss value to generate a trained neural network model.
