• Abstract summary: Recent works have suggested that multi-modal deep learning analysis can benefit from explicitly disentangling anatomical (shape) and modality (appearance) representations from the images. We propose a margin loss that regularizes the similarity relationships of the representations across subjects and modalities. To enable a robust training, we introduce a modified conditional convolution to design a single model for encoding images of all modalities.

• Abstract: Multi-modal MR images are widely used in neuroimaging applications to provide complementary information about the brain structures. Recent works have suggested that multi-modal deep learning analysis can benefit from explicitly disentangling anatomical (shape) and modality (appearance) representations from the images. In this work, we challenge existing strategies by showing that they do not naturally lead to representation disentanglement both in theory and in practice. To address this issue, we propose a margin loss that regularizes the similarity relationships of the representations across subjects and modalities. To enable a robust training, we further introduce a modified conditional convolution to design a single model for encoding images of all modalities. Lastly, we propose a fusion function to combine the disentangled anatomical representations as a set of modality-invariant features for downstream tasks. We evaluate the proposed method on three multi-modal neuroimaging datasets. Experiments show that our proposed method can achieve superior disentangled representations compared to existing disentanglement strategies. Results also indicate that the fused anatomical representation has great potential in the downstream task of zero-dose PET reconstruction and brain tumor segmentation.

  In clinical practice, certain modalities of MRI may be missing, which presents a more difficult scenario. Knowledge Distillation, Domain Adaption, and Shared Latent Space have emerged as commonly promising strategies. We propose a novel paradigm that aligns latent features of involved modalities to a well-defined distribution anchor as the substitution of the pre-trained model.

  We present a novel two-step (intra-modality and inter-modality) curriculum disentanglement learning framework for brain tumor segmentation. In the first step, we propose to conduct reconstruction and segmentation with augmented intra-modality style-consistent images. In the second step, the model jointly performs reconstruction, unsupervised/supervised translation, and segmentation for both unpaired and paired inter-modality images.

In our MANet, the representations from the fully sampled auxiliary and undersampled target modalities are learned independently through a specific network. Our MANet follows a hybrid domain learning framework, which allows it to simultaneously recover the frequency signal in the $k$-space domain.

  We propose a novel model, Multi-modal Gaussian Process Prior Variational Autoencoder (MGP-VAE), to impute one or more missing sub-modalities for a patient scan. MGP-VAE can leverage the Gaussian Process (GP) prior on the Variational Autoencoder (VAE) to utilize the subjects/patients and sub-modalities correlations. We show the applicability of MGP-VAE on brain tumor segmentation where either, two, or three of four sub-modalities may be missing.

We demonstrate the efficacy of the method through intensive simulations, and further illustrate its advantages analyses of two functional magnetic resonance imaging datasets.
