MONAI

Project MONAI
open source / Overall score: 3.8

PyTorch framework for deep learning on medical images, part of the PyTorch Ecosystem. It supplies medical-imaging transforms, losses and metrics, a large set of network architectures (UNet, UNETR, SwinUNETR, SegResNet, VISTA3D and more), training workflows and model bundles, and Auto3DSeg, which analyzes a dataset, trains several segmentation algorithms and ensembles them with minimal user input. It began at NVIDIA and King's College London and is steered by an advisory board drawn from its member institutions.

Capability

5 medium confidence
5.0

Most of MONAI is a toolkit for building medical-imaging models by hand, but its Auto3DSeg runs the whole job for 3D segmentation - data analysis, algorithm choice, training, tuning and ensembling - from a single line of code, the automation AutoGluon provides for tables. That automation covers segmentation only.
