• Title: Modality Completion via Gaussian Process Prior Variational Autoencoders for Multi-Modal Glioma Segmentation

• Abstract summary: 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.

• Abstract: In large studies involving multi protocol Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), it can occur to miss one or more sub-modalities for a given patient owing to poor quality (e.g. imaging artifacts), failed acquisitions, or hallway interrupted imaging examinations. In some cases, certain protocols are unavailable due to limited scan time or to retrospectively harmonise the imaging protocols of two independent studies. Missing image modalities pose a challenge to segmentation frameworks as complementary information contributed by the missing scans is then lost. In this paper, 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. Instead of designing one network for each possible subset of present sub-modalities or using frameworks to mix feature maps, missing data can be generated from a single model based on all the available samples. We show the applicability of MGP-VAE on brain tumor segmentation where either, two, or three of four sub-modalities may be missing. Our experiments against competitive segmentation baselines with missing sub-modality on BraTS'19 dataset indicate the effectiveness of the MGP-VAE model for segmentation tasks.

  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.

  A common problem in practice is the unavailability of some modalities due to varying scanning protocols and patient conditions. Previous methods have attempted to address this by fusing accessible multi-modal features, leveraging attention mechanisms, and synthesizing missing modalities. We propose a novel approach that enhances the deep learning-based brain tumor segmentation model from two perspectives.

The model integrates a dual contrast loss term with the CycleGAN loss to ensure that the synthesized images are distinguishable from the source domain. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed ADC-cycleGAN model produces comparable samples to other state-of-the-art generative models.
