We evaluate the use of kd-tree (a space partitioning
data structure) to speed-up the matching process in
magnetic resonance fingerprinting. We found that, in
combination with PCA reduction, the matching time can be
reduced by 2 to 3 order of magnitude while preserving
the accuracy. The matching time, however, increases with
noise level and the PCA threshold remains a key element
to tune to achieve the best performance.
