MI-Zero can be applied to any dataset of whole slide images. In our paper, we reported results primarily from an in-house dataset. For reproducibility, we also tested on some subsets of WSIs from The Cancer Genome Atlas. These results are in the Supplementary Material of the paper. Below we provide a quick example using a subset of cases for TCGA RCC subtyping.
To extract patches from WSIs, we used CLAM, but other packages can be used as long as the patching outputs are stored in the .h5 format, where each .h5 file refers to a WSI and the 'coords' key points to a numpy array of N x 2 coordinates for N patches from that WSI.
The script assumes wsis are .svs files and extracts embeddings using 20x patches:
python extract_embeddings.py --csv_path ./data_csvs/tcga_rcc_zeroshot_example.csv --h5_source <path_to_h5_files> --wsi_source <path_to_wsi_files> --save_dir <where_to_save_embeddings> --ckpt_path <path_to_checkpoint> --device cuda:0To run MI-Zero after extracting patch embeddings, use slidelevel_zeroshot_multiprompt.py. An example command is provided for TCGA RCC subtyping:
python slidelevel_zeroshot_multiprompt.py --task RCC_subtyping --embeddings_dir <path_to_rcc_embeddings> --dataset_split ./data_csvs/tcga_rcc_zeroshot_example.csv --topj 1 5 50 --prompt_file ./prompts/rcc_prompts.json --model_checkpoint ./logs/ctranspath_448_bioclinicalbert/checkpoints/epoch_50.pt 
Since some of our models were pretrained on proprietary in-house data, we are only able to release encoder weights that were pretrained entirely on publicly available data. The checkpoints can be found here.
Specificaly, we release two models trained with bioclinicalbert and pubmedbert as the text encoder respectively.
bioclinicalbert:ctranspath_448_bioclinicalbert/checkpoints/epoch_50.ptpubmedbert:ctranspath_448_pubmedbert/checkpoints/epoch_50.pt
Once the weights are downloaded, they should be placed into the ./src/logs/ directory, such that their relative paths to MI-Zero are:
./src/ctranspath_448_bioclinicalbert/checkpoints/epoch_50.pt./src/ctranspath_448_pubmedbert/checkpoints/epoch_50.pt
