Hello all,
I was thinking about creating a general data loader for 3D imaging inputs (volumes). I want to eventually have a lot of flexibility for how I load the images (i.e. what percentage of the volume I’m inputting), and control for sampling-based (and metrics) based on certain attributes which could easily be stored in a DataFrame.
I was considering using the pandas.DataFrame.groupby object as a core of the data loader. It was would be relatively simple to initialize the core parameters that define the image coordinates of interest.
Is this a good strategy? Alternatively, I could have a custom data structure that maps across the image volumes and the spatial coordinates.
Any feedback is appreciated before I dive into this
