• Abstract summary: Cortical surface analysis has gained increased prominence, given its potential implications for neurological and developmental disorders. Traditional vision diffusion models, while effective in generating natural images, present limitations in capturing intricate development patterns in neuroimaging due to limited datasets. In this work, we proposed a novel diffusion model for the generation of cortical surface metrics, using modified surface vision transformers as the principal architecture.

• Abstract: Cortical surface analysis has gained increased prominence, given its potential implications for neurological and developmental disorders. Traditional vision diffusion models, while effective in generating natural images, present limitations in capturing intricate development patterns in neuroimaging due to limited datasets. This is particularly true for generating cortical surfaces where individual variability in cortical morphology is high, leading to an urgent need for better methods to model brain development and diverse variability inherent across different individuals. In this work, we proposed a novel diffusion model for the generation of cortical surface metrics, using modified surface vision transformers as the principal architecture. We validate our method in the developing Human Connectome Project (dHCP), the results suggest our model demonstrates superior performance in capturing the intricate details of evolving cortical surfaces. Furthermore, our model can generate high-quality realistic samples of cortical surfaces conditioned on postmenstrual age(PMA) at scan.

• Geometric Trajectory Diffusion Models [58.853975433383326]
  Generative models have shown great promise in generating 3D geometric systems. Existing approaches only operate on static structures, neglecting the fact that physical systems are always dynamic in nature. We propose geometric trajectory diffusion models (GeoTDM), the first diffusion model for modeling the temporal distribution of 3D geometric trajectories.

  Deformation-Recovery Diffusion Model (DRDM) is a diffusion-based generative model based on deformation diffusion and recovery. DRDM is trained to learn to recover unreasonable deformation components, thereby restoring each randomly deformed image to a realistic distribution. Experimental results in cardiac MRI and pulmonary CT show DRDM is capable of creating diverse, large (over 10% image size deformation scale) deformations.

  Surface Masked AutoEncoder (sMAE) and surface Masked AutoEncoder (MAE) These models are trained to reconstruct cortical feature maps from masked versions of the input by learning strong latent representations of cortical development and structure function. Results show that (v)sMAE pre-trained models improve phenotyping prediction performance on multiple tasks by $ge 26%$, and offer faster convergence relative to models trained from scratch.
