Abstract

Hyperparameter tuning is extremely tedious and costly in the deep learning-based deformable image registration methods. In this paper, we present our contribution to the Learn2Reg challenge and demonstrate how hyperparameter tuning can be accelerated and simplified with the proposed conditional image registration framework. We exemplify the conditional image registration framework with the deep Laplacian pyramid image registration network (cLapIRN) and apply it comprehensively to all three tasks in the challenge. Our method was ranked the first place in the Learn2Reg 2021 challenge.
