A pre-trained model for the endoscopic tool segmentation task, trained using a flexible unet structure with an efficientnet-b2 [1] as the backbone and a UNet architecture [2] as the decoder. Datasets use private samples from Activ Surgical.
The PyTorch model and torchscript model are shared in google drive. Details can be found in large_files.yml file. Modify the "bundle_root" parameter specified in configs/train.json and configs/inference.json to reflect where models are downloaded. Expected directory path to place downloaded models is "models/" under "bundle_root".

Pre-trained weights
A pre-trained encoder weights would benefit the model training. In this bundle, the encoder is trained with pre-trained weights from some internal data. We provide two options to enable users to load pre-trained weights:
Via setting the use_imagenet_pretrain parameter in the config file to True, ImageNet pre-trained weights from the EfficientNet-PyTorch repo can be loaded. Please note that these weights are for non-commercial use. Each user is responsible for checking the content of the models/datasets and the applicable licenses and determining if suitable for the intended use.
Via adding a CheckpointLoader as the first handler to the handlers section of the train.json config file, weights from a local path can be loaded. Here is an example CheckpointLoader:
When executing the training command, if neither adding the CheckpointLoader to the train.json nor setting the use_imagenet_pretrain parameter to True, a training process would start from scratch.
Data
Datasets used in this work were provided by Activ Surgical.
Since datasets are private, existing public datasets like EndoVis 2017 can be used to train a similar model.
Preprocessing
When using EndoVis or any other dataset, it should be divided into "train", "valid" and "test" folders. Samples in each folder would better be images and converted to jpg format. Otherwise, "images", "labels", "val_images" and "val_labels" parameters in configs/train.json and "datalist" in configs/inference.json should be modified to fit given dataset. After that, "dataset_dir" parameter in configs/train.json and configs/inference.json should be changed to root folder which contains "train", "valid" and "test" folders.
Please notice that loading data operation in this bundle is adaptive. If images and labels are not in the same format, it may lead to a mismatching problem. For example, if images are in jpg format and labels are in npy format, PIL and Numpy readers will be used separately to load images and labels. Since these two readers have their own way to parse file's shape, loaded labels will be transpose of the correct ones and incur a missmatching problem.
Training configuration
The training as performed with the following:
GPU: At least 12GB of GPU memory
Actual Model Input: 736 x 480 x 3
Optimizer: Adam
Learning Rate: 1e-4
Dataset Manager: CacheDataset
Memory Consumption Warning
If you face memory issues with CacheDataset, you can either switch to a regular Dataset class or lower the caching rate cache_rate in the configurations within range [0, 1] to minimize the System RAM requirements.
Input
A three channel video frame
Output
Two channels:
Label 1: tools
Label 0: everything else
Performance
IoU was used for evaluating the performance of the model. This model achieves a mean IoU score of 0.86.
Training Loss
A graph showing the training loss over 100 epochs.
Validation IoU
A graph showing the validation mean IoU over 100 epochs.
TensorRT speedup
The endoscopic_tool_segmentation bundle supports acceleration with TensorRT. The table below displays the speedup ratios observed on an A100 80G GPU.

Where:
model computation means the speedup ratio of model's inference with a random input without preprocessing and postprocessing
end2end means run the bundle end-to-end with the TensorRT based model.
torch_fp32 and torch_amp are for the PyTorch models with or without amp mode.
trt_fp32 and trt_fp16 are for the TensorRT based models converted in corresponding precision.
speedup amp, speedup fp32 and speedup fp16 are the speedup ratios of corresponding models versus the PyTorch float32 model
amp vs fp16 is the speedup ratio between the PyTorch amp model and the TensorRT float16 based model.

MONAI Bundle Commands
In addition to the Pythonic APIs, a few command line interfaces (CLI) are provided to interact with the bundle. The CLI supports flexible use cases, such as overriding configs at runtime and predefining arguments in a file.
python -m monai.bundle run --config_file configs/train.json
Please note that if the default dataset path is not modified with the actual path in the bundle config files, you can also override it by using --dataset_dir:
python -m monai.bundle run --config_file configs/train.json --dataset_dir <actual dataset path>
Override the train config to execute multi-GPU training:
torchrun --standalone --nnodes=1 --nproc_per_node=2 -m monai.bundle run --config_file "['configs/train.json','configs/multi_gpu_train.json']"
Please note that the distributed training-related options depend on the actual running environment; thus, users may need to remove --standalone, modify --nnodes, or do some other necessary changes according to the machine used. For more details, please refer to pytorch's official tutorial.
Override the train config to execute evaluation with the trained model:
python -m monai.bundle run --config_file "['configs/train.json','configs/evaluate.json']"
Override the train config and evaluate config to execute multi-GPU evaluation:
torchrun --standalone --nnodes=1 --nproc_per_node=2 -m monai.bundle run --config_file "['configs/train.json','configs/evaluate.json','configs/multi_gpu_evaluate.json']"
Execute inference:
python -m monai.bundle run --config_file configs/inference.json
python -m monai.bundle run --config_file "['configs/inference.json', 'configs/inference_trt.json']"
