#include <elxPreconditionedStochasticGradientDescent.h>
A gradient descent optimizer with an adaptive gain.
This class is a wrap around the PreconditionedASGDOptimizer class. It takes care of setting parameters and printing progress information. For more information about the optimization method, please read the documentation of the PreconditionedASGDOptimizer class.
This optimizer is very suitable to be used in combination with the Random image sampler, or with the RandomCoordinate image sampler, with the setting (NewSamplesEveryIteration "true"). Much effort has been spent on providing reasonable default values for all parameters, to simplify usage. In most registration problems, good results should be obtained without specifying any of the parameters described below (except the first of course, which defines the optimizer to use).
This optimization method is described in the following references:
[1] Y. Qiao, B.P.F. Lelieveldt, M. Staring An efficient preconditioner for stochastic gradient descent optimization of image registration IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2019 https://doi.org/10.1109/TMI.2019.2897943
The parameters used in this class are:
Optimizer: Select this optimizer as follows:
(Optimizer "PreconditionedStochasticGradientDescent")
MaximumNumberOfIterations: The maximum number of iterations in each resolution.
example: (MaximumNumberOfIterations 100 100 50)
Default/recommended value: 500. When you are in a hurry, you may go down to 250 for example. When you have plenty of time, and want to be absolutely sure of the best results, a setting of 2000 is reasonable. In general, 500 gives satisfactory results.
MaximumNumberOfSamplingAttempts: The maximum number of sampling attempts. Sometimes not enough corresponding samples can be drawn, upon which an exception is thrown. With this parameter it is possible to try to draw another set of samples.
example: (MaximumNumberOfSamplingAttempts 10 15 10)
Default value: 0, i.e. just fail immediately, for backward compatibility.
AutomaticParameterEstimation: When this parameter is set to "true", many other parameters are calculated automatically: SP_a, SP_alpha, SigmoidMax, SigmoidMin, and SigmoidScale. In the elastix.log file the actually chosen values for these parameters can be found.
example: (AutomaticParameterEstimation "true")
Default/recommended value: "true". The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
StepSizeStrategy: When this parameter is set to "true", the adaptive step size mechanism described in the documentation of itk::itkPreconditionedASGDOptimizer is used. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (StepSizeStrategy "Adaptive")
Default/recommend value: "Adaptive", because it makes the registration more robust. In case of using a RandomCoordinate sampler, with (UseRandomSampleRegion "true"), the adaptive step size mechanism is turned off, no matter the user setting.
MaximumStepLength: Also called . This parameter can be considered as the maximum voxel displacement between two iterations. The larger this parameter, the more aggressive the optimization. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (MaximumStepLength 1.0)
Default: mean voxel spacing of fixed and moving image. This seems to work well in general. This parameter only has influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used.
SP_a: The gain at each iteration is defined by
.
SP_a can be defined for each resolution.
example: (SP_a 3200.0 3200.0 1600.0)
The default value is 400.0. Tuning this variable for you specific problem is recommended. Alternatively set the AutomaticParameterEstimation to "true". In that case, you do not need to specify SP_a. SP_a has no influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used.
SP_A: The gain at each iteration is defined by
.
SP_A can be defined for each resolution.
example: (SP_A 50.0 50.0 100.0)
The default/recommended value for this particular optimizer is 20.0.
SP_alpha: The gain at each iteration is defined by
.
SP_alpha can be defined for each resolution.
example: (SP_alpha 0.602 0.602 0.602)
The default/recommended value for this particular optimizer is 1.0. Alternatively set the AutomaticParameterEstimation to "true". In that case, you do not need to specify SP_alpha. SP_alpha has no influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used.
SigmoidMax: The maximum of the sigmoid function ( ). Must be larger than 0. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (SigmoidMax 1.0)
Default/recommended value: 1.0. This parameter has no influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used. In that case, always a value 1.0 is used.
SigmoidMin: The minimum of the sigmoid function ( ). Must be smaller than 0. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (SigmoidMin -0.8)
Default value: -0.8. This parameter has no influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used. In that case, the value is automatically determined, depending on the images, metric etc.
SigmoidScale: The scale/width of the sigmoid function ( ). The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (SigmoidScale 0.00001)
Default value: 1e-8. This parameter has no influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used. In that case, the value is automatically determined, depending on the images, metric etc.
SigmoidInitialTime: the initial time input for the sigmoid ( ). Must be larger than 0.0. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (SigmoidInitialTime 0.0 5.0 5.0)
Default value: 0.0. When increased, the optimization starts with smaller steps, leaving the possibility to increase the steps when necessary. If set to 0.0, the method starts with with the largest step allowed.
NumberOfGradientMeasurements: Number of gradients N to estimate the average square magnitudes of the exact gradient and the approximation error. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (NumberOfGradientMeasurements 10)
Default value: 0, which means that the value is automatically estimated. In principle, the more the better, but the slower. In practice N=10 is usually sufficient. But the automatic estimation achieved by N=0 also works good. The parameter has only influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used.
NumberOfJacobianMeasurements: The number of voxels M where the Jacobian is measured, which is used to estimate the covariance matrix. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (NumberOfJacobianMeasurements 5000 10000 20000)
Default value: M = max( 1000, nrofparams ), with nrofparams the number of transform parameters. This is a rather crude rule of thumb, which seems to work in practice. In principle, the more the better, but the slower. The parameter has only influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used.
NumberOfSamplesForNoiseCompensationFactor: The number of image samples used to compute the 'exact' gradient. The samples are chosen on a uniform grid. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (NumberOfSamplesForNoiseCompensationFactor 100000)
Default/recommended: 100000. This works in general. If the image is smaller, the number of samples is automatically reduced. In principle, the more the better, but the slower. The parameter has only influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used.
m_NumberOfSamplesForPrecondition: The number of image samples used to compute the gradient for preconditioner. The samples are chosen on a random sampler. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (NumberOfSamplesForPrecondition 500000)
Default/recommended: 500000. This works in general. If the image is smaller, the number of samples is automatically reduced. In principle, the more the better, but the slower. The parameter has only influence when AutomaticParameterEstimation is used.
RegularizationKappa: Selects for the preconditioner regularization. The parameter can be specified for each resolution, or for all resolutions at once.
example: (RegularizationKappa 0.9)
