# Description
A pre-trained model for segmenting nuclei cells with user clicks/interactions.
# Model Overview
This model is trained using [BasicUNet](https://docs.monai.io/en/latest/networks.html#basicunet) over [ConSeP](https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/tia/data/hovernet) dataset.
## Data
The training dataset is from https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/tia/data/hovernet
```commandline
wget https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/tia/data/hovernet/consep_dataset.zip
unzip -q consep_dataset.zip
```
## Training configuration
The training was performed with the following:
- GPU: at least 12GB of GPU memory
- Actual Model Input: 4 x 128 x 128
- AMP: True
- Optimizer: Adam
- Learning Rate: 1e-4
- Loss: DiceLoss
### Preprocessing
After [downloading this dataset](https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/tia/data/hovernet/consep_dataset.zip),
python script `data_process.py` from `scripts` folder can be used to preprocess and generate the final dataset for training.
```
python scripts/data_process.py --input /path/to/data/CoNSeP --output /path/to/data/CoNSePNuclei
```
After generating the output files, please modify the `dataset_dir` parameter specified in `configs/train.json` and `configs/inference.json` to reflect the output folder which contains new dataset.json.
Class values in dataset are
- 1 = other
- 2 = inflammatory
- 3 = healthy epithelial
- 4 = dysplastic/malignant epithelial
- 5 = fibroblast
- 6 = muscle
- 7 = endothelial
As part of pre-processing, the following steps are executed.
- Crop and Extract each nuclei Image + Label (128x128) based on the centroid given in the dataset.
- Combine classes 3 & 4 into the epithelial class and 5,6 & 7 into the spindle-shaped class.
- Update the label index for the target nuclie based on the class value
- Other cells which are part of the patch are modified to have label idex = 255
Example dataset.json
```json
{
"training": [
{
"image": "/workspace/data/CoNSePNuclei/Train/Images/train_1_3_0001.png",
"label": "/workspace/data/CoNSePNuclei/Train/Labels/train_1_3_0001.png",
"nuclei_id": 1,
"mask_value": 3,
"centroid": [
64,
64
]
}
],
"validation": [
{
"image": "/workspace/data/CoNSePNuclei/Test/Images/test_1_3_0001.png",
"label": "/workspace/data/CoNSePNuclei/Test/Labels/test_1_3_0001.png",
"nuclei_id": 1,
"mask_value": 3,
"centroid": [
64,
64
]
}
]
}
```
## Input and output formats
### Input: 5 channels
- 3 RGB channels
- +ve signal channel (this nuclei)
- -ve signal channel (other nuclei)
### Output: 2 channels
- 0 = Background
- 1 = Nuclei
## Scores
This model achieves the following Dice score on the validation data provided as part of the dataset:
- Train Dice score = 0.89
- Validation Dice score = 0.85
## Training Performance
A graph showing the training Loss and Dice over 50 epochs.
## Validation Performance
A graph showing the validation mean Dice over 50 epochs.
## commands example
Execute training:
```
python -m monai.bundle run training --meta_file configs/metadata.json --config_file configs/train.json --logging_file configs/logging.conf
```
Override the `train` config to execute multi-GPU training:
```
torchrun --standalone --nnodes=1 --nproc_per_node=2 -m monai.bundle run training --meta_file configs/metadata.json --config_file "['configs/train.json','configs/multi_gpu_train.json']" --logging_file configs/logging.conf
```
Please note that the distributed training related options depend on the actual running environment, thus you may need to remove `--standalone`, modify `--nnodes` or do some other necessary changes according to the machine you used.
Please refer to [pytorch's official tutorial](https://pytorch.org/tutorials/intermediate/ddp_tutorial.html) for more details.
Override the `train` config to execute evaluation with the trained model:
```
python -m monai.bundle run evaluating --meta_file configs/metadata.json --config_file "['configs/train.json','configs/evaluate.json']" --logging_file configs/logging.conf
```
Override the `train` config and `evaluate` config to execute multi-GPU evaluation:
```
torchrun --standalone --nnodes=1 --nproc_per_node=2 -m monai.bundle run evaluating --meta_file configs/metadata.json --config_file "['configs/train.json','configs/evaluate.json','configs/multi_gpu_evaluate.json']" --logging_file configs/logging.conf
```
Execute inference:
```
python -m monai.bundle run evaluating --meta_file configs/metadata.json --config_file configs/inference.json --logging_file configs/logging.conf
```
