clinicadl.networks.nn.AttentionUNet

class clinicadl.networks.nn.AttentionUNet(spatial_dims: int, in_channels: int, out_channels: int, channels: Sequence[int] = (64, 128, 256, 512, 1024), act: ActFunction | tuple[ActFunction, dict[str, Any]] = ActFunction.RELU, output_act: ActFunction | tuple[ActFunction, dict[str, Any]] | None = None, dropout: float | None = None)

Attention-UNet, based on Attention U-Net: Learning Where to Look for the Pancreas.

Very similar to UNet, but with attention gates in the skip connections.

The user can customize the number of encoding blocks, the number of channels in each block, as well as other parameters like the activation function.

Works with 2D or 3D images (with additional batch and channel dimensions).

Warning

AttentionUNet works only with images whose dimensions are high enough powers of 2. More precisely, if n is the number of max pooling operation in your UNet (which is equal to len(channels)-1), the image must have \(2^{k}\) pixels in each dimension, with \(k \geq n\) (e.g. shape (\(2^{n}\), \(2^{n+3}\), \(2^{n+1}\)) for a 3D image).

Parameters:

• spatial_dims (int) – Number of spatial dimensions of the input image.

• in_channels (int) – Number of channels in the input image.

• out_channels (int) – Number of output channels.

• channels (Sequence[int], default=(64, 128, 256, 512, 1024)) –

  Number of channels in each UNet block. Thus, this parameter also controls the number of UNet blocks (equal to the length of the sequence). The length channels should be no less than 2.

  Default to (64, 128, 256, 512, 1024), as in the original UNet paper[1].

• act (ActivationParameters, default="relu") –

  The activation function used, and optionally its arguments. Must be passed as activation_name or (activation_name, arguments), where arguments is a dictionary.

  activation_name can be any value in {"celu", "elu", "gelu", "leakyrelu", "logsoftmax", "mish", "prelu", "relu", "relu6", "selu", "sigmoid", "softmax", "tanh"}. Please refer to PyTorch activation functions to know the arguments for each of them.

  Default is relu, as in the original paper.

• output_act (Optional[ActivationParameters], default=None) – A potential activation layer applied to the output of the network. Must be passed in the same way as act. If None, no last activation will be applied.

• dropout (Optional[float], default=None) – Dropout ratio. If None, no dropout.
