Deep learning based registration using spatial gradients and noisy segmentation labels
Get PDFImage registration is one of the most challenging problems in medical image analysis. In the recent years, deep learning based approaches became quite popular, providing fast and performing registration strategies. In this short paper, we summarise our work presented on Learn2Reg challenge 2020. The main contributions of our work rely on (i) a symmetric formulation, predicting the transformations from source to target and from target to source simultaneously, enforcing the trained representations to be similar and (ii) integration of variety of publicly available datasets used both for pretraining and for augmenting segmentation labels. Our method reports a mean dice of 0.64 for task 3 and 0.85 for task 4 on the test sets, taking third place on the challenge. Our code and models are publicly available at https://github.com/TheoEst/abdominal_registration and https://github.com/TheoEst/hippocampus_registration
Weakly Supervised Multiple Instance Learning Histopathological Tumor Segmentation
No full textInternational audienceHistopathological image segmentation is a challenging and important topic in medical imaging with tremendous potential impact in clinical practice. State of the art methods rely on hand-crafted annotations which hinder clinical translation since histology suffers from significant variations between cancer phenotypes. In this paper, we propose a weakly supervised framework for whole slide imaging segmentation that relies on standard clinical annotations, available in most medical systems. In particular, we exploit a multiple instance learning scheme for training models. The proposed framework has been evaluated on multi-locations and multi-centric public data from The Cancer Genome Atlas and the PatchCamelyon dataset. Promising results when compared with experts’ annotations demonstrate the potentials of the presented approach. The complete framework, including 6481 generated tumor maps and data processing, is available at https://github.com/marvinler/tcga_segmentation
Exploring Deep Registration Latent Spaces
No full textInternational audienceExplainability of deep neural networks is one of the most challenging and interesting problems in the field. In this study, we investigate the topic focusing on the interpretability of deep learning-based registration methods. In particular, with the appropriate model architecture and using a simple linear projection, we decompose the encoding space, generating a new basis, and we empirically show that this basis captures various decomposed anatomically aware geometrical transformations. We perform experiments using two different datasets focusing on lungs and hippocampus MRI. We show that such an approach can decompose the highly convoluted latent spaces of registration pipelines in an orthogonal space with several interesting properties. We hope that this work could shed some light on a better understanding of deep learningbased registration methods
