External Email - Use Caution        

Hello,
     I am trying to process several images with MiDeFace but running into issues with memory and uncaught exceptions.

Of 50 images, about half are processed successfully. On the other half MiDeFace fails consistently. However, whether the images fail seems to depend on the platform. Here's what I've tried

So, I'm not sure whether this is a bug or something that I need to configure differently.

############

Example apptainer command

$ apptainer exec -e -B $(pwd):/data docker://freesurfer/freesurfer:7.3.2 mideface --i /data/volume.nii.gz --o /data/defaced.nii.gz --odir /data/qa


Example docker command

> docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/data freesurfer/freesurfer:7.3.2 mideface --i /data/volume.nii.gz --o /data/defaced.nii.gz --odir /data/qa



Example "bare" command

> mideface --i volume.nii.gz --o defaced.nii.gz --odir qa

############

On the CentOS runs, the error is

MiDeface::SegFace()
