2D/3D registration functions

Registration

The Registration module uses the DRR module to perform differentiable 2D-to-3D registration. Initial guesses for the pose parameters are as stored as nn.Parameters of the module. This allows the pose parameters to be optimized with any PyTorch optimizer. Furthermore, this design choice allows DRR to be used purely as a differentiable renderer.

Registration

 Registration (drr:diffdrr.drr.DRR, rotation:torch.Tensor,
               translation:torch.Tensor, parameterization:str,
               convention:str=None)

Perform automatic 2D-to-3D registration using differentiable rendering.

	Type	Default	Details
drr	DRR		Preinitialized DRR module
rotation	Tensor		Initial guess for rotations
translation	Tensor		Initial guess for translations
parameterization	str		Specifies the representation of the rotation
convention	str	None	If parameterization is euler_angles, specify convention

Pose Regressor

We perform patient-specific X-ray to CT registration by pre-training an encoder/decoder architecture. The encoder, PoseRegressor, is comprised of two networks:

1. A pretrained backbone (i.e., convolutional or transformer network) that extracts features from an input X-ray image.
2. A set of two linear layers that decodes these features into camera pose parameters (a rotation and a translation).

The decoder is diffdrr.drr.DRR, which renders a simulated X-ray from the predicted pose parameters. Because our renderer is differentiable, a loss metric on the simulated X-ray and the input X-ray can be backpropogated to the encoder.

PoseRegressor

 PoseRegressor (model_name, parameterization, convention=None,
                pretrained=False, height=256, **kwargs)

A PoseRegressor is comprised of a pretrained backbone model that extracts features from an input X-ray and two linear layers that decode these features into rotational and translational camera pose parameters, respectively.
