Summary

  • Ports the mindmap model (a MeshNet-style dilated 3D CNN -- model16chan18cls's topology at 24 channels, 18-class whole-brain segmentation, published as model24chan18cls_gdice_prio in neuroneural/brainchop-test) to the MONAI bundle format: architecture (scripts/network.py), preprocessing (scripts/conform.py), postprocessing (scripts/postprocess.py), and MONAI transform wiring (scripts/transforms.py). Covers the default label-output path only; an optional CAT-lite partial-volume-estimation (--pve) mode from the upstream reference implementation is out of scope for this bundle.
  • Validated against the upstream reference implementation's own CPU-backend regression fixtures via the real python -m monai.bundle run pipeline: 98.8% voxel agreement in conform space (t1_crop.nii.gz -> labels24.nii.gz) and 97.9% in native space (t1_2mm.nii.gz -> labels24_native.nii.gz), with ~96% of the disagreeing voxels immediately adjacent to a class boundary in the reference rather than scattered mislabeling. Not bit-exact: an 18-class segmentation has far more internal class-boundary surface area than a binary mask, so floating-point summation-order differences between this NumPy/PyTorch port and the reference implementation's custom SIMD kernels flip a small fraction of near-tie voxels. Documented in docs/README.md's Performance/Limitations sections.
  • Weights are pulled directly from the existing public checkpoint at neuroneural/brainchop-models (meshnet/model24chan18cls/model.pth, large_files.yml pinned to a commit SHA with a sha256 hash_val), with a self-validating key-remapping loader (scripts/checkpoint.py) instead of hosting a duplicate pre-converted copy. That file is safetensors data despite its .pth extension, so the loader uses safetensors.torch.load_file rather than torch.load.
  • LICENSE reproduces the actual upstream terms (MIT for the brainchop-models checkpoint/architecture, BSD-2-Clause for the niimath-derived preprocessing code), since this is a third-party model port, not original MONAI Consortium work.
  • mindmap added to ci/bundle_custom_data.py's exclude_verify_torchscript_list: models/model.pt is the upstream checkpoint in its original key layout, so monai.bundle ckpt_export/trt_export cannot load it directly (they bypass this bundle's custom checkpoint loader). Documented workaround (manual torch.jit.script after loading) in docs/README.md.

Closes #788

Test plan

  • python -m monai.bundle verify_metadata
  • python -m monai.bundle verify_net_in_out
  • Full ci/verify_bundle.py check (directory/large-file download+hash, version/changelog, metadata schema, bundle properties, data shape, torchscript-skip)
  • flake8 / black / isort on models/mindmap/scripts/
  • End-to-end python -m monai.bundle run on both upstream test fixtures (t1_crop.nii.gz, t1_2mm.nii.gz), diffed voxel-for-voxel against the reference implementation's CPU output: 98.8% / 97.9% agreement, disagreement concentrated at class-boundary voxels (see Limitations in docs/README.md)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added the MindMap whole-brain segmentation model bundle.
    • Segments 3D medical images into 18 FreeSurfer-style brain regions.
    • Automatically preprocesses images and restores results to their original geometry.
    • Supports optional standardized 256³ conform-space output.
    • Validates the model checkpoint before inference.
  • Documentation

    • Added usage instructions, performance information, system requirements, limitations, and licensing details.

Ports brainchopC's mindmap model (MeshNet-style dilated 3D CNN, 24
channels, 18-class whole-brain segmentation) to the MONAI bundle format,
covering the default label-output path only (CAT-lite PVE mode is out of
scope). Weights are pulled from neuroneural/brainchop-models via
large_files.yml, with a self-validating key-remapping loader in
scripts/checkpoint.py. Validated against brainchopC's own CPU-backend
regression fixtures (98.8% / 97.9% voxel agreement in conform/native
space, with disagreement concentrated at inter-class boundary voxels).

directories containing either supported input format are discovered.

In `@models/mindmap/configs/metadata.json`:
- Around line 46-49: Update the value_range metadata for the mindmap_preprocess
network input to reflect the actual values it can produce, including values
below 0 and above 1; if the schema supports it, omit value_range instead of
declaring an inaccurate bound.

In `@models/mindmap/docs/README.md`:
- Line 34: The quantile normalization documentation must match
_quantile_normalize_uint8: describe that non-positive high-low denominators are
replaced with 1.0 before rescaling, rather than claiming no denominator guard
exists.

Points references at public alternates instead (neuroneural/brainchop-test,
which publishes this exact model's weights/config, and brainchop-models),
or generalizes to "the upstream reference implementation" where no public
alternate names the specific detail being cited. Also fixes the
brainchop-models reference link to the pinned commit large_files.yml uses,
instead of "main".

- Line 19: Update the description metadata to replace “model16chan18cls's
topology at 24 channels” with “model24chan18cls's topology,” keeping it
consistent with the model identifier used in network.py and the checkpoint
source.

In `@models/mindmap/docs/README.md`:
- Line 29: The README’s statement about reproducing the upstream preprocessing
pipeline exactly is too broad. Revise the sentence near the upstream reference
implementation to limit the claim to the supported intensity, conform, and
reslice operations, or explicitly note the NiBabel qform/sform affine-selection
exception.
