The conventional calibration-based parallel imaging method assumes a linear relationship between the acquired multichannel k-space data and the unacquired missing data, where the linear coefficients are estimated using some auto-calibration data. In this work, we first analyze the model errors in the conventional calibration-based methods and demonstrate the nonlinear relationship. Then a much more general nonlinear framework is proposed for auto-calibrated parallel imaging. In this framework, kernel tricks are employed to represent the general nonlinear relationship between acquired and unacquired k-space data without increasing the computational complexity. Identification of the nonlinear relationship is still performed by solving linear equations. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve reconstruction quality superior to GRAPPA and NL-GRAPPA at high net reduction factors.
