Datasets

The brain imaging datasets used in the paper are all publicly available but cannot be shared directly by us. Please see the following websites for accessing the original data.

UK Biobank provides pre-processed data including the meshes of the subcortical structures. All other datasets were processed by us using FSL-FIRST to segment the 15 different brain structures.

We can only provide the meshes for the IXI dataset, allowing for the code to be run for an example of sex classification when trained and tested on IXI subsets. Please download the IXI meshes and unzip in the data/brain subfolder.

Code

For running the code, we recommend setting up a dedicated Python environment.

Setup Python environment using conda

Create and activate a Python 3 conda environment:

conda create -n pymesh python=3.8
conda activate pymesh

Setup Python environment using virtualenv

Create and activate a Python 3 virtual environment:

virtualenv -p python3.8 <path_to_envs>/pymesh
source <path_to_envs>/pymesh/bin/activate

Install PyTorch

Check out instructions for how to install PyTorch using conda or pip.

Install PyTorch Geometric

Check out instructions for how to install PyTorch Geometric using conda or pip. Make sure to also install the package torch-spline-conv.

Install additional packages:

pip install matplotlib jupyter pandas seaborn scikit-learn tensorboard pytorch-lightning cmake vtk pyvista open3d
pip install openmesh

For conda users, openmesh may have to be installed via

conda install -c conda-forge openmesh-python

How to use

In order to train and test an example sex classification model with the IXI dataset:

  1. Download the IXI meshes, unzip in the data/brain subfolder.
  2. Run the the script brain_shape_classification.py.
