Implement 'No New-Net' #396

Closed Zach-ER closed 5 years ago

Zach-ER commented 5 years ago

The current implementation of UNet3d is outdated. One major problem is that it does a crop, instead of using valid convolutions all the way through. This slows it down majorly.

I propose implementing a new UNet3d based on No New-Net (https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-11726-9_21)

This network did well in the BRaTS 2018 challenge and is efficient. Additionally, using the volume_padding_to_size flag, the user can choose a size of file to perform inference in a single forward pass. This should reduce inference time greatly.
