Multimodal segmentation with disentangled representations

Implementations of the MMSDNet and DAFNet models that perform multimodal image segmentation using a disentangled representation of anatomy and modality factors. For further details please see our paper Multimodal Cardiac Segmentation Using Disentangled Representation Learning presented in STACOM 2019, and the pre-print [Disentangle align and fuse for multimodal and semi-supervised image segmentation].

Pseudocode of the training process is uploaded on pseudocode.pdf

The code is written in Python 3.6 with Keras 2.1.6 and tensorflow 1.4.0 and experiments were run in Titan-X and Titan-V GPUs. The requirements.txt file contains all Python library versions.

This project is structured in different packages as follows:

callbacks: contains Keras callbacks for printing images and losses during training
configuration: contains configuration files for running an experiment
layers: contains custom Keras layers, e.g. the STN layer
loaders: contains definitions of data loaders
model_components: contains implementations of individual components, e.g. the encoders and decoders
model_executors: contains code for loading data and training models
models: contains Keras implementations of MMSDNet, DAFNet
utils: package with utility functions used in the project

To define a new data loader, extend class base_loader.Loader, and register the loader in loader_factory.py. The datapaths are specified in base_loader.py.

To run an experiment, execute experiment.py, passing the configuration filename and the split number as runtime parameters:

python experiment.py --config myconfiguration --split 0

Optional parameters include the proportion of labels in modality 2 data for unsupervised learning, e.g.

python experiment.py --config myconfiguration --split 0 --l_mix 0.5

Sample config files for MMSDNet and DAFNet are placed in the configuration package for CHAOS data.
