We propose Space-aware memory QUeues for In-painting and Detecting anomalies from radiography images (abbreviated as SQUID). Radiography imaging protocols focus on particular body regions, therefore producing images of great similarity and yielding recurrent anatomical structures across patients. To exploit this structured information, SQUID consists of a new Memory Queue and a novel in-painting block in the feature space.

SQUID can taxonomize the ingrained anatomical structures into recurrent patterns; and in the inference, SQUID can identify anomalies (unseen/modified patterns) in the image. SQUID surpasses the state of the art in unsupervised anomaly detection by over 5 points on two chest X-ray benchmark datasets.

This repository provides the official Pytorch implementation of SQUID in the following papers:

Please clone our environment using the following command:

conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate squid

• checkpoints/: experiment folders, organized by unique exp identifier.
• dataloader/: dataloaders for zhanglab, chexpert, and digitanotamy.
• models/: models for SQUID, inpainting block, all kinds of memory, basic modules, and discriminator.
• configs/: configure files for different experiments, based on the base configure class.

ZhangLab Chest X-ray

Please download the offical training/testing and our validation splits from google drive, and unzip it to anywhere you like.

Stanford ChexPert

Please download the offical training/validation and our testing splits from google drive, and unzip it to anywhere you like.

DigitAnatomy

Please unzip the files in data/digitanatomy.zip, and place them to the data root as specified in the configs/base.py.

Different experiments are controlled by configure files, which are in configs/.

All configure files are inherited from the base configure file: configs/base.py, we suggest you to take a look at this base file first, and change the dataset root path in your machine.

Then, you can inherite the base configure class and change settings as you want.

We provide our default configures for ZhangLab: configs/zhang_best.py, CheXpert: configs/chexpert_best.py and configs/digit_best.py.

The path to a configure file needs to be passed to the program for training.

Train with a configure file and a unique experiment identifier:

python3 main.py --exp zhang_exp1 --config zhang_best

Alternatively, you can modify run.sh and simply run:

./run.sh

Evaluate with an exp identifier (config file will be imported from the exp folder instead):

python3 eval.py --exp zhang_exp1

Alternatively, you can modify eval.sh and simply run:

./eval.sh
