Abstract: Highlights•Optimisation for sparse multi-dimensional MRI by a genetic algorithm was proposed.•A iterative inversion Laplace transform was proposed to improve spectral resolution.•The proposed framework was validated on Monte Carlo simulations.•The proposed framework was applied to obtain microstructural maps of human brains.
