TractOracle: towards an anatomically-informed reward function for RL-based tractography

2 code implementations26 Mar 2024 Antoine Théberge, Maxime Descoteaux, Pierre-Marc Jodoin

Reinforcement learning (RL)-based tractography is a competitive alternative to machine learning and classical tractography algorithms due to its high anatomical accuracy obtained without the need for any annotated data.

What Matters in Reinforcement Learning for Tractography

1 code implementation15 May 2023 Antoine Théberge, Christian Desrosiers, Maxime Descoteaux, Pierre-Marc Jodoin

Recently, deep reinforcement learning (RL) has been proposed to learn the tractography procedure and train agents to reconstruct the structure of the white matter without manually curated reference streamlines.

FIESTA: Autoencoders for accurate fiber segmentation in tractography

no code implementations30 Nov 2022 Félix Dumais, Jon Haitz Legarreta, Carl Lemaire, Philippe Poulin, François Rheault, Laurent Petit, Muhamed Barakovic, Stefano Magon, Maxime Descoteaux, Pierre-Marc Jodoin

Our proposed method improves bundle segmentation coverage by recovering hard-to-track bundles with generative sampling through the latent space seeding of the subject bundle and the atlas bundle.

Generative Sampling in Bundle Tractography using Autoencoders (GESTA)

no code implementations22 Apr 2022 Jon Haitz Legarreta, Laurent Petit, Pierre-Marc Jodoin, Maxime Descoteaux

GESTA is thus a novel deep generative bundle tractography method that can be used to improve the tractography reconstruction of the white matter.

Manifold-aware Synthesis of High-resolution Diffusion from Structural Imaging

no code implementations9 Aug 2021 Benoit Anctil-Robitaille, Antoine Théberge, Pierre-Marc Jodoin, Maxime Descoteaux, Christian Desrosiers, Hervé Lombaert

The physical and clinical constraints surrounding diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) often limit the spatial resolution of the produced images to voxels up to 8 times larger than those of T1w images.

Filtering in tractography using autoencoders (FINTA)

no code implementations7 Oct 2020 Jon Haitz Legarreta, Laurent Petit, François Rheault, Guillaume Theaud, Carl Lemaire, Maxime Descoteaux, Pierre-Marc Jodoin

Current brain white matter fiber tracking techniques show a number of problems, including: generating large proportions of streamlines that do not accurately describe the underlying anatomy; extracting streamlines that are not supported by the underlying diffusion signal; and under-representing some fiber populations, among others.

Understanding Alzheimer disease’s structural connectivity through explainable AI

no code implementations MIDL 2019 Achraf Essemlali, Etienne St-Onge, Jean Christophe Houde, Pierre Marc Jodoin, Maxime Descoteaux

In the following work, we use a modified version of deep BrainNet convolutional neural network (CNN) trained on the diffusion weighted MRI (DW-MRI) tractography connectomes of patients with Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) to better understand the structural connectomics of that disease.

Tractography and machine learning: Current state and open challenges

no code implementations14 Feb 2019 Philippe Poulin, Daniel Jörgens, Pierre-Marc Jodoin, Maxime Descoteaux

Supervised machine learning (ML) algorithms have recently been proposed as an alternative to traditional tractography methods in order to address some of their weaknesses.

NODDI-SH: a computational efficient NODDI extension for fODF estimation in diffusion MRI

no code implementations28 Aug 2017 Mauro Zucchelli, Maxime Descoteaux, Gloria Menegaz

Exploiting the ability of Spherical Harmonics (SH) to model spherical functions, we propose a new reconstruction model for DMRI data which is able to estimate both the fiber Orientation Distribution Function (fODF) and the relative volume fractions of the neurites in each voxel, which is robust to multiple fiber crossings.
