In this blog, we will dive into the fascinating world of subcellular structure prediction using the RepMode framework. This technology, developed by Donghao Zhou and his colleagues, aims to accurately predict 3D fluorescent images of various subcellular structures from transmitted-light images. We will walk you through the necessary steps to implement RepMode, troubleshoot common issues, and enhance your understanding of this innovative approach.

Understanding the Basics: What is RepMode?

RepMode stands for “Re-parameterizing Mixture-of-Diverse-Experts,” and it is designed to tackle the challenges associated with partial labeling and multi-scale tasks in subcellular structure prediction. You can think of RepMode like a personalized recipe for a complex dish. Just as a chef uses different ingredients tailored to preferences and availability, RepMode organizes its parameters dynamically to meet specific prediction tasks, resulting in highly efficient and accurate models.

Device Requirements

Before we jump into the setup process, here’s a quick checklist to ensure you have the necessary hardware:

• A computer with at least 50GB of RAM for dataset loading.
• An NVIDIA GPU with a minimum of 20GB memory (we recommend an NVIDIA V100 GPU with 32GB memory).
• A compatible Linux operating system (Ubuntu 18.04.5 was used for development).

Installation Steps

Now let’s get started with installation:

1. Create a Conda environment:

conda create --name SSP python=3.9.12

2. Activate the environment:

conda activate SSP

3. Install the required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Follow this guide to set up Weights & Biases (WB) for experimental logging.

Preparing Datasets

Next, we will prepare the datasets:

Downloading Data

Execute the following commands:

cd PATH-TO-THIS-CODE

bash scripts/dataset_download_all_data.sh

Splitting Data

To split your datasets, run the following commands:

bash scripts/dataset_split_train_set.sh

bash scripts/dataset_split_val_set.sh

Integrating Data

Finally, format and integrate your datasets:

bash scripts/dataset_integ_dataset.sh

This command will generate three .pth files necessary for training and testing your model.

Training and Evaluation

To train your model, use the following command:

bash scripts/run_train_and_eval.sh GPU_IDX MODEL_NAME EXP_NAME

For example, to train with GPU index 1:

bash scripts/run_train_and_eval.sh 1 RepMode exps/benchmark_RepMode

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during installation or execution, here are a few tips:

• Ensure your Conda environment is activated while executing scripts.
• Check that all dependencies are correctly installed by reviewing requirements.txt.
• For memory-related issues, consider closing other applications or upgrading your hardware.
• If you need further assistance, feel free to reach out for collaboration on AI development projects. For more insights, updates, or to collaborate on AI development projects, stay connected with fxis.ai.
