NiftyTorch is a Python API for deploying deep neural networks for Neuroimaging research.
The motivation behind the development of such a library is that there is no centralized tool for deploying 3D deep learning for neuroimaging. In addition, most of the existing tools require expert technical know-how in deep learning or programming, creating a barrier for entry. The goal is to provide a one stop API using which the users can perform classification tasks, Segmentation tasks and Image Generation tasks. The intended audience are the members of neuroimaging who would like to explore deep learning but have no background in coding.

NiftyTorch can be installed using:
pip install niftytorchIf you encounter problem, check dependencies. NiftyTorch requires torch==1.4.0, torchvision==0.5.0 and optuna==1.4.0. We also noted in some machines latest Numpy generates error (if so, change to an older version, such as numpy-1.16.4 using pip install numpy==1.16.4). For a complete demo on how to set up the requirement and getting started see Getting Started notebook in the Demo folder.

NiftyTorch would not be possible without liberal imports of the excellent pytorch, torchvision, nipy, numpy, pandas, matplotlib and optuna libraries.
