Fixes #6558.

Adds an opt-in translate_relative flag to RandAffineGrid, RandAffine, and RandAffined. When enabled, translate_range values are interpreted as fractions of the corresponding spatial dimension size, so e.g. RandAffine(translate_range=0.5, translate_relative=True) translates up to half the image size regardless of input resolution — no more hardcoding voxel counts per dataset.

Design notes:

  • Default False: fully backward compatible, existing behavior unchanged.
  • The sampled fractions are scaled to voxels inside RandAffineGrid.__call__ (using spatial_size, falling back to the grid shape), operating on a copy so repeated calls with randomize=False can't double-scale.
  • The recorded affine matrix stores absolute voxel translations, so inverse() and lazy execution are unaffected.

Tested: syntax + scaling-logic checks locally; existing rand-affine tests to be run in CI. Happy to add a unit test if you'd like one in this PR.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

RandAffineGrid, RandAffine, and RandAffined add a translate_relative option that defaults to False. When enabled and spatial dimensions are available, sampled translations are multiplied by the corresponding dimension sizes. Otherwise, the sampled translations remain unchanged. RandAffine and RandAffined forward the option to the grid implementation.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to e34ea

Code that calls these transforms with positional arguments may now set the wrong option or fail without warning. Before merging, move the new flag to the end of each parameter list and add tests for relative translation.

Add tests for relative translation scaling.

The new behavior has no test in the supplied cohort. Test distinct spatial dimensions, a supplied grid, and repeated calls with randomize=False. Assert the resulting affine translations and that self.translate_params stays unscaled.

As per path instructions, “Ensure new or modified definitions will be covered by existing or new unit tests.”

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve positional constructor arguments. Each new parameter shifts an existing public constructor argument. Existing positional calls can therefore configure the wrong option or fail.

  • monai/transforms/spatial/array.py#L1864-L1864: preserve the positional binding of device and later arguments in RandAffineGrid.
  • monai/transforms/spatial/array.py#L2471-L2471: preserve the positional binding of spatial_size and later arguments in RandAffine.
  • monai/transforms/spatial/dictionary.py#L1051-L1051: preserve the positional binding of mode and later arguments in RandAffined.

Add translate_relative after existing parameters while retaining its keyword forwarding. As per path instructions, “Review the Python code for quality and correctness.”

RandAffine translate_range parameter should be relative.
