Practical Implementation 4.1 Basic Augmentation Pipeline for 3D Segmentation import monai from monai.transforms import ( Compose, RandRotate, RandZoom, RandGaussianNoise, RandFlip, RandAffine, EnsureChannelFirst, ScaleIntensity ) train_transforms = Compose([ EnsureChannelFirst(), # (H,W,D) -> (C,H,W,D) ScaleIntensity(), # Normalize to [0,1] RandRotate(range_x=0.2, range_y=0.2, range_z=0.1, prob=0.5), RandZoom(min_zoom=0.9, max_zoom=1.1, prob=0.3), RandGaussianNoise(std=0.05, prob=0.4), RandFlip(spatial_axis=0, prob=0.5), RandAffine(translate_range=10, rotate_range=0.1, scale_range=0.1), ]) Apply to image and label using RandAffined for paired transforms paired_transforms = monai.transforms.Compose([ monai.transforms.LoadImaged(keys=["image", "label"]), monai.transforms.EnsureChannelFirstd(keys=["image", "label"]), monai.transforms.ScaleIntensityd(keys=["image"]), monai.transforms.RandRotated(keys=["image", "label"], prob=0.5, range_x=0.2), monai.transforms.RandZoomd(keys=["image", "label"], prob=0.3, min_zoom=0.9, max_zoom=1.1), ]) 4.2 GPU-Accelerated Dictionary Transforms Use *d transforms for dictionary-based datasets (recommended for large 3D data):
