Requirement for 'diagnosis' Column in Generalization Testing with ClinicaDL

[mtmmu88]

Dear ClinicaDL Team,

I have encountered some issues while using ClinicaDL for neuroimaging analysis. Specifically, I am interested in using your tool to test the generalization capability of a pre-trained model. The issue arises when running the clinicadl predict command, which seems to require a TSV file containing a 'diagnosis' column.

In the context of generalization testing, diagnostic information is often either unavailable or irrelevant. Therefore, I am wondering if there is a way to perform generalization tests without providing a 'diagnosis' column.

If such a feature or option does not currently exist, I strongly suggest adding it as a new feature or option. This would greatly enhance the flexibility of ClinicaDL in practical applications.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Best regards

this is my bug
