The MRSaiFE deep learning framework predicts SAR based on anatomical images, but it does not guarantee model generalization due to data leakage in the training process. To improve the model, we extended the UNet architecture to include residual and inception modules in its encoder part. Further, we implemented customized loss functions, and evaluation metrics to improve the predictive performance. The results show that the model predicts SAR with an SSIM=86% and MSE=0.14% for unseen body models.
