fsm_seg.vsinus.1

FSM-family small-FOV segmentation -- Venous sinuses (6 labels)

Description

A small 3-level neurite UNet shared by five FreeSurfer segmentation tools, ported to JAX / Equinox from the FreeSurfer bundled reference implementations. The architecture is a compact variant of the SynthSeg / SynthSR UNet body (nb_features=24, nb_levels=3, conv_size=3, feat_mult=2, nb_conv_per_level=2, per-level BatchNorm, ELU activation, 1-channel T1 input, softmax head). Five published variants share this architecture exactly; they differ only in the number of output labels and in the recommended inference field of view. The variant id is recorded in the bundle's card, so loading by repo id selects the appropriate weights without changing the JAX class.

Intended use

Segmentation of the major venous sinuses from a single T1w volume conformed to a 144 mm cube FoV.

Usage

from ilex.models.fsm_seg import FSMSeg
model = FSMSeg.from_pretrained('ilex-hub/fsm_seg.vsinus.1')
