## Overview

This repository hosts a pre-trained checkpoint from the **OpenMind** benchmark using the **Primus-M** backbone. Primus is a Transformer-centric segmentation architecture designed specifically to maximize the effectiveness of attention mechanisms in 3D medical imaging, surpassing hybrid architectures and competing with state-of-the-art CNNs.

Each model in this benchmark was pre-trained using a particular self-supervised learning (SSL) method on the [OpenMind Dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/AnonRes/OpenMind), a large-scale, standardized collection of public brain MRI datasets.

**Note**: These models are primarily intended for downstream fine-tuning. We recommend using the adaptation frameworks for segmentation and classification provided in the [nnU-Net adaptation repository](https://github.com/TaWald/nnUNet).

*While manual download is possible, we recommend using the auto-download feature of the fine-tuning repository by providing the repository URL on Hugging Face instead of a local checkpoint path.*

## Model Variants

In the OpenMind benchmark, SSL checkpoints are released for two backbone architectures:

- **ResEnc-L**: A CNN-based encoder [[a](https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.23132), [b](https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.09556)]  
- **Primus-M**: A transformer-based encoder introduced in the [Primus paper](https://huggingface.co/papers/2503.01835).

Each encoder has been pre-trained using various SSL techniques such as SimCLR, Volume Contrastive (VoCo), VolumeFusion (VF), and Masked Autoencoders (MAE). This specific checkpoint uses **SimCLR**.
