LabelFusion

Link to code

Wraps command seg_LabFusion

Interface for executable seg_LabelFusion from NiftySeg platform using type STEPS as classifier Fusion.

This executable implements 4 fusion strategies (-STEPS, -STAPLE, -MV or - SBA), all of them using either a global (-GNCC), ROI-based (-ROINCC), local (-LNCC) or no image similarity (-ALL). Combinations of fusion algorithms and similarity metrics give rise to different variants of known algorithms. As an example, using LNCC and MV as options will run a locally weighted voting strategy with LNCC derived weights, while using STAPLE and LNCC is equivalent to running STEPS as per its original formulation. A few other options pertaining the use of an MRF (-MRF beta), the initial sensitivity and specificity estimates and the use of only non-consensus voxels (-unc) for the STAPLE and STEPS algorithm. All processing can be masked (-mask), greatly reducing memory consumption.

As an example, the command to use STEPS should be: seg_LabFusion -in 4D_Propragated_Labels_to_fuse.nii -out FusedSegmentation.nii -STEPS 2 15 TargetImage.nii 4D_Propagated_Intensities.nii
