The reliable identification of mitotic figures in whole-slide histopathological images remains difficult, owing to their low prevalence, substantial morphological heterogeneity, and the inconsistencies introduced by tissue processing and…
Mitotic counting is a vital prognostic marker of tumor proliferation in breast cancer. Deep learning-based mitotic detection is on par with pathologists, but it requires large labeled data for training. We propose a deep classification…
Unsupervised domain adaptation for object detection is a challenging problem with many real-world applications. Unfortunately, it has received much less attention than supervised object detection. Models that try to address this task tend…
We present a novel approach which extends the existing Fully Convolutional One-Stage Object Detector (FCOS) for mitotic figure detection. Our composite model adds a Feedback Attention Ladder CNN (FAL-CNN) model for classification of normal…
For histopathological tumor assessment, the count of mitotic figures per area is an important part of prognostication. Algorithmic approaches - such as for mitotic figure identification - have significantly improved in recent times,…
We propose a new training scheme for domain generalization in mitotic figure detection. Mitotic figures show different characteristics for each scanner. We consider each scanner as a 'domain' and the image distribution specified for each…
This paper describes our contribution to the MIDOG 2022 challenge for detecting mitotic cells. One of the major problems to be addressed in the MIDOG 2022 challenge is the robustness under the natural variance that appears for real-life…
For the MIDOG mitosis detection challenge, we created a cascade algorithm consisting of a Mask-RCNN detector, followed by a classification ensemble consisting of ResNet50 and DenseNet201 to refine detected mitotic candidates. The MIDOG…
Mitotic figure detection in histology images is a hard-to-define, yet clinically significant task, where labels are generated with pathologist interpretations and where there is no ``gold-standard'' independent ground-truth. However, it is…
Domain shift, the mismatch between training and testing data characteristics, causes significant degradation in the predictive performance in multi-source imaging scenarios. In medical imaging, the heterogeneity of population, scanners and…
Mitotic figure detection is a crucial task in computational pathology, as mitotic activity serves as a strong prognostic marker for tumor aggressiveness. However, domain variability that arises from differences in scanners, tissue types,…
With a continuously growing availability of annotated datasets of mitotic figures in histology images, finding the best way to optimally use with this unprecedented amount of data to optimally train deep learning models has become a new…
Mitotic activity is an important feature for grading several cancer types. Counting mitotic figures (MFs) is a time-consuming, laborious task prone to inter-observer variation. Inaccurate recognition of MFs can lead to incorrect grading and…
The proliferative activity of breast tumors, which is routinely estimated by counting of mitotic figures in hematoxylin and eosin stained histology sections, is considered to be one of the most important prognostic markers. However, mitosis…
Objective: The study aims to address the challenge of aligning Standard Fundus Images (SFIs) and Ultra-Widefield Fundus Images (UWFIs), which is difficult due to their substantial differences in viewing range and the amorphous appearance of…
Unsupervised representation learning has proved to be a critical component of anomaly detection/localization in images. The challenges to learn such a representation are two-fold. Firstly, the sample size is not often large enough to learn…
Each woman living in the United States has about 1 in 8 chance of developing invasive breast cancer. The mitotic cell count is one of the most common tests to assess the aggressiveness or grade of breast cancer. In this prognosis,…
Anomaly detection in medical imaging is essential for identifying rare pathological conditions, particularly when annotated abnormal samples are limited. We propose a hybrid anomaly detection framework that integrates self-supervised…
Deploying deep learning-based imaging tools across various clinical sites poses significant challenges due to inherent domain shifts and regulatory hurdles associated with site-specific fine-tuning. For histopathology, stain normalization…
Accurate detection of mitosis plays a critical role in breast cancer histopathology. Manual detection and counting of mitosis is tedious and subject to considerable inter- and intra-reader variations. Multispectral imaging is a recent…
