Abstract
Combining multi-site datasets is very important for increasing statistical power. With the development of medical imaging technology, the acquisition of MRI neuroimaging datasets with larger sample sizes has become possible. However, different scanners will generate non-biological noise in MRI neuroimaging data, leading to inconsistent research results across different scanners. In this research, we proposed the Auto-fader network to harmonize MRI neuroimaging data among different scanners to address this issue. The Fader network is a domain adaptation technique, it has an encoder-decoder architecture that can obtain the features without site effects, but the site labels must be encoded manually during training. Encoding site labels manually is only sometimes accurate. Therefore, on this basis, the Auto fader model has added site effects auto-encoding module and directly uses 3D convolution layers to extract features from the MRI neuroimaging data. Finally, experiments demonstrate that the Auto-fader model outperforms existing approaches in harmonizing MRI neuroimaging data from different scanners.
