A collection of deep learning architectures and applications ported to the Python language and tools for basic medical image processing. Based on keras and tensorflow with cross-compatibility with our R analog ANTsRNet. ANTsPyNet provides three high-level features:
- A large collection of common deep learning architectures for medical imaging that can be initialized
- Various pre-trained deep learning models to perform key medical imaging tasks
- Utility functions to improve training and evaluating of deep learning models on medical images
Installation
The easiest way to install ANTsPyNet is via pip.
python -m pip install antspynet
Alternatively, you can download and install from source.
git clone https://github.com/ANTsX/ANTsPyNet
cd ANTsPyNet
python -m pip install .
