This manuscript describes the first challenge on Federated Learning, namely the Federated Tumor Segmentation (FeTS) challenge 2021. International challenges have become the standard for validation of biomedical image analysis methods. However, the actual performance of participating (even the winning) algorithms on real-world clinical data often remains unclear, as the data included in challenges are usually acquired in very controlled settings at few institutions. The seemingly obvious solution of just collecting increasingly more data from more institutions in such challenges does not scale well due to privacy and ownership hurdles. Towards alleviating these concerns, we are proposing the FeTS challenge 2021 to cater towards both the development and the evaluation of models for the segmentation of intrinsically heterogeneous (in appearance, shape, and histology) brain tumors, namely gliomas. Specifically, the FeTS 2021 challenge uses clinically acquired, multi-institutional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans from the BraTS 2020 challenge, as well as from various remote independent institutions included in the collaborative network of a real-world federation (https://www.fets.ai/). The goals of the FeTS challenge are directly represented by the two included tasks: 1) the identification of the optimal weight aggregation approach towards the training of a consensus model that has gained knowledge via federated learning from multiple geographically distinct institutions, while their data are always retained within each institution, and 2) the federated evaluation of the generalizability of brain tumor segmentation models in the wild, i.e. on data from institutional distributions that were not part of the training datasets.

In this paper, we propose a Hybrid High-resolution and Non-local Feature Network (H2NF-Net) to segment brain tumor in multimodal MR images. Our H2NF-Net uses the single and cascaded HNF-Nets to segment different brain tumor sub-regions and combines t
he predictions together as the final segmentation. We trained and evaluated our model on the Multimodal Brain Tumor Segmentation Challenge (BraTS) 2020 dataset. The results on the test set show that the combination of the single and cascaded models achieved average Dice scores of 0.78751, 0.91290, and 0.85461, as well as Hausdorff distances ($95%$) of 26.57525, 4.18426, and 4.97162 for the enhancing tumor, whole tumor, and tumor core, respectively. Our method won the second place in the BraTS 2020 challenge segmentation task out of nearly 80 participants.
Training a deep neural network is an optimization problem with four main ingredients: the design of the deep neural network, the per-sample loss function, the population loss function, and the optimizer. However, methods developed to compete in recen
t BraTS challenges tend to focus only on the design of deep neural network architectures, while paying less attention to the three other aspects. In this paper, we experimented with adopting the opposite approach. We stuck to a generic and state-of-the-art 3D U-Net architecture and experimented with a non-standard per-sample loss function, the generalized Wasserstein Dice loss, a non-standard population loss function, corresponding to distributionally robust optimization, and a non-standard optimizer, Ranger. Those variations were selected specifically for the problem of multi-class brain tumor segmentation. The generalized Wasserstein Dice loss is a per-sample loss function that allows taking advantage of the hierarchical structure of the tumor regions labeled in BraTS. Distributionally robust optimization is a generalization of empirical risk minimization that accounts for the presence of underrepresented subdomains in the training dataset. Ranger is a generalization of the widely used Adam optimizer that is more stable with small batch size and noisy labels. We found that each of those variations of the optimization of deep neural networks for brain tumor segmentation leads to improvements in terms of Dice scores and Hausdorff distances. With an ensemble of three deep neural networks trained with various optimization procedures, we achieved promising results on the validation dataset of the BraTS 2020 challenge. Our ensemble ranked fourth out of the 693 registered teams for the segmentation task of the BraTS 2020 challenge.
There is a large body of literature linking anatomic and geometric characteristics of kidney tumors to perioperative and oncologic outcomes. Semantic segmentation of these tumors and their host kidneys is a promising tool for quantitatively character
izing these lesions, but its adoption is limited due to the manual effort required to produce high-quality 3D segmentations of these structures. Recently, methods based on deep learning have shown excellent results in automatic 3D segmentation, but they require large datasets for training, and there remains little consensus on which methods perform best. The 2019 Kidney and Kidney Tumor Segmentation challenge (KiTS19) was a competition held in conjunction with the 2019 International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI) which sought to address these issues and stimulate progress on this automatic segmentation problem. A training set of 210 cross sectional CT images with kidney tumors was publicly released with corresponding semantic segmentation masks. 106 teams from five continents used this data to develop automated systems to predict the true segmentation masks on a test set of 90 CT images for which the corresponding ground truth segmentations were kept private. These predictions were scored and ranked according to their average So rensen-Dice coefficient between the kidney and tumor across all 90 cases. The winning team achieved a Dice of 0.974 for kidney and 0.851 for tumor, approaching the inter-annotator performance on kidney (0.983) but falling short on tumor (0.923). This challenge has now entered an open leaderboard phase where it serves as a challenging benchmark in 3D semantic segmentation.
Brain tumor segmentation is a critical task for patients disease management. In order to automate and standardize this task, we trained multiple U-net like neural networks, mainly with deep supervision and stochastic weight averaging, on the Multimod
al Brain Tumor Segmentation Challenge (BraTS) 2020 training dataset. Two independent ensembles of models from two different training pipelines were trained, and each produced a brain tumor segmentation map. These two labelmaps per patient were then merged, taking into account the performance of each ensemble for specific tumor subregions. Our performance on the online validation dataset with test time augmentation were as follows: Dice of 0.81, 0.91 and 0.85; Hausdorff (95%) of 20.6, 4,3, 5.7 mm for the enhancing tumor, whole tumor and tumor core, respectively. Similarly, our solution achieved a Dice of 0.79, 0.89 and 0.84, as well as Hausdorff (95%) of 20.4, 6.7 and 19.5mm on the final test dataset, ranking us among the top ten teams. More complicated training schemes and neural network architectures were investigated without significant performance gain at the cost of greatly increased training time. Overall, our approach yielded good and balanced performance for each tumor subregion. Our solution is open sourced at https://github.com/lescientifik/open_brats2020.
Automatic brain tumor segmentation from multi-modality Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) using deep learning methods plays an important role in assisting the diagnosis and treatment of brain tumor. However, previous methods mostly ignore the latent rel
ationship among different modalities. In this work, we propose a novel end-to-end Modality-Pairing learning method for brain tumor segmentation. Paralleled branches are designed to exploit different modality features and a series of layer connections are utilized to capture complex relationships and abundant information among modalities. We also use a consistency loss to minimize the prediction variance between two branches. Besides, learning rate warmup strategy is adopted to solve the problem of the training instability and early over-fitting. Lastly, we use average ensemble of multiple models and some post-processing techniques to get final results. Our method is tested on the BraTS 2020 online testing dataset, obtaining promising segmentation performance, with average dice scores of 0.891, 0.842, 0.816 for the whole tumor, tumor core and enhancing tumor, respectively. We won the second place of the BraTS 2020 Challenge for the tumor segmentation task.
