Image-and-Spatial Transformer Networks

Image-and-Spatial Transformer Networks for Structure-guided Image Registration

We introduce a novel, generic, learning-based image registration framework, Image-and-Spatial Transformer Networks, to leverage Structures-of-Interest information allowing us to learn new image representations that are optimised for the downstream registration task. Thanks to these representations we can employ a test-specific, iterative refinement over the transformation parameters which yields highly accurate registration even with very limited training data.

The work has been accepted at MICCAI 2019. If you make use of the code, please cite the paper in any resulting publications:

Setup

To install requirements run

pip install -r requirements.txt

Demo with 2D synthetic data

Data

To unzip the 2D synthetic data used in the paper, from the parent directory run

unzip data/synth2d/unzip_here.zip -d data/synth2d/

Running ISTNs

To run a 2D experirment with an implicit ISTN on the synthetic data run

python istn-reg.py --config data/synth2d/config.json --transformation affine --loss i --out output/istn-i --model output/istn-i/train/model

--loss controls the type of training strategy as described in the paper, options are

u - unsupervised s - supervised e - explicit i - implicit

Monitoring Training with Tensorboard

Tensorboard logs are placed in {{--out}}/tensorboard, to fire up tensorboard you can run

tensorboard --logdir {{--out}}

If you installed tensoboard using pip, you may not be able to call it as above as. You can find its installation location by running

pip show tensoboard

Then you can run

python tensorboard/location/main.py --logdir {{--out}}

Models are saved under {{--out}}/train, once training is complete test results are found processed and put into {{--out}}/test
