However, the influence of key design choices, including partitioning strategy, preprocessing, and inference, remains insufficiently understood. In this work, we introduce a unified framework that decomposes splitting-based reconstruction into these three components, enabling controlled comparison of existing methods and two incremental extensions: multi-partition splitting and an alternative inference strategy. Experiments on simulated LoDoPaB-CT data under independent and correlated noise, together with validation on the real-world 2DeteCT dataset, show that the optimal partitioning strategy strongly depends on the measurement noise structure. Lattice-based splitting performs favorably under independent noise, whereas angular masking is more robust under correlated noise and real measured data. Multi-partition splitting consistently improves over pure projection-wise splitting in several settings. Complementary perceptual and structural metrics, including LPIPS and HaarPSI, reveal differences between masking strategies that are less apparent from PSNR and SSIM alone. These results provide practical guidelines for designing self-supervised sparse-view CT reconstruction methods and highlight the limitations of common independence assumptions in realistic imaging environments.  \nIndex Terms—Computed tomography, self-supervised learning, sparse-view reconstruction, data partitioning, masking strategies, inverse problems  \nI. INTRODUCTION  \nIn imaging modalities such as X-ray computed tomography (CT), cryo-electron microscopy, and photoacoustic imaging, images are reconstructed from indirect and often incomplete measurements. In practice, acquisition constraints such as limited scan time, radiation dose, or physical limitations lead to severely undersampled inverse problems of the form  \ny = N (Ax), (1)  \nwhere A : X → Y denotes the forward operator, N represents a noise corruption process, x ∈ X is the unknown image, and y ∈ Y are the measured data. Such inverse problems are often ill-posed due to the ill-conditioned nature of A and the presence of noise, meaning additional prior information is required for stable reconstruction.  \nCorresponding authors: [nadja.gruber@uibk.ac.at](nadja.gruber@uibk.ac.at), johannes.schwab@fh[kufstein.ac.at](kufstein.ac.at)  \n∗ Department of Computer Science, University of Innsbruck, Austria.  \n† Institute of Basic Sciences in Engineering Science, University of Innsbruck, Austria.  \n‡ Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, University of Cambridge, UK.  \n§ Department of Mathematics, Yeungnam University, Gyeongsan, Korea.¶ Department of Mathematics, University of Innsbruck, Austria.∥ University of Applied Sciences Kufstein, Austria.  \nClassical variational methods incorporate handcrafted regularizers such as smoothness or total variation [20], [19], [3],[24] . While theoretically well established, their performance degrades in strongly undersampled regimes and depends heavily on careful parameter selection. More recently, deep learning approaches have achieved state-of-the-art performance by learning image priors directly from data. However, most methods rely on supervised training with paired measurements and ground-truth images, which are often unavailable in practical clinical or industrial imaging settings [2] .  \nTo overcome this limitation, self-supervised learning approaches have emerged to exploit structure within the measurements themselves.
