RSNA Intracranial Hemorrhage Detection

This is the project for RSNA Intracranial Hemorrhage Detection hosted on Kaggle in 2019.

Requirements

• Python 3.6.6
• Pytorch 1.1.0
• NVIDIA apex 0.1 (for mixed precision training)

Performance (Single model)

Backbone	Image size	LB
se_resnext50_32x4d	512x512	0.070 - 0.072

Windowing

For this challenge, windowing is important to focus on the matter, in this case the brain and the blood. There are good kernels explaining how windowing works.

• See like a Radiologist with Systematic Windowing by David Tang
• RSNA IH Detection - EDA by Allunia

We used three types of windows to focus and assigned them to each of the chennel to construct images on the fly for training.

Channel	Matter	Window Center	Window Width
0	Brain	40	80
1	Blood/Subdural	80	200
2	Soft tissues	40	380

Preparation

Please put ./input directory in the root level and unzip the file downloaded from kaggle there. All other directories such as ./cache, ./data, ./model will be created if needed when ./bin/preprocess.sh is run.

Preprocessing

Please make sure you run the script from parent directory of ./bin.

$ sh ./bin/preprocess.sh

preprocess.sh does the following at once.

• dicom_to_dataframe.py reads dicom files and save its metadata into the dataframe.
• create_dataset.py creates a dataset for training.
• make_folds.py makes folds for cross validation.

Training

$ sh ./bin/train001.sh

train.001.sh uses se_resnext50_32x4d from pretrained-models.pytorch for training. One epoch probably takes 20,000 seconds to train with a single 1080ti.

Predicting

$ sh ./bin/predict001.sh

predict001.sh does the predictions and makes a submission file for scoring on Kaggle. Please uncomment the last line if you want to automatically submit it to kaggle through API.
