In medicine, visualizing chromosomes is important for medical diagnostics, drug development, and biomedical research. Unfortunately, chromosomes often overlap and it is necessary to identify and distinguish between the overlapping…
Chromosome analysis and identification from metaphase images is a critical part of cytogenetics based medical diagnosis. It is mainly used for identifying constitutional, prenatal and acquired abnormalities in the diagnosis of genetic…
A fundamental task in human chromosome analysis is chromosome segmentation. Segmentation plays an important role in chromosome karyotyping. The first step in segmentation is to remove intrusive objects such as stain debris and other noises.…
Chromosome recognition is an essential task in karyotyping, which plays a vital role in birth defect diagnosis and biomedical research. However, existing classification methods face significant challenges due to the inter-class similarity…
Chromosome karyotype analysis is of great clinical importance in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, especially for genetic diseases. Since manual analysis is highly time and effort consuming, computer-assisted automatic chromosome…
Chromosome classification is an important but difficult and tedious task in karyotyping. Previous methods only classify manually segmented single chromosome, which is far from clinical practice. In this work, we propose a detection based…
Chromosome classification is critical for karyotyping in abnormality diagnosis. To expedite the diagnosis, we present a novel method named Varifocal-Net for simultaneous classification of chromosome's type and polarity using deep…
Automated chromosome instance segmentation from metaphase cell microscopic images is critical for the diagnosis of chromosomal disorders (i.e., karyotype analysis). However, it is still a challenging task due to lacking of densely annotated…
Chromosomal crossovers play a crucial role in meiotic cell division, as they ensure proper chromosome segregation and increase genetic variability. Experiments have consistently revealed two key observations across species: (i) the number…
The ability to dynamically extend a model to new data and classes is critical for multiple organ and tumor segmentation. However, due to privacy regulations, accessing previous data and annotations can be problematic in the medical domain.…
Karyotyping is an important procedure to assess the possible existence of chromosomal abnormalities. However, because of the non-rigid nature, chromosomes are usually heavily curved in microscopic images and such deformed shapes hinder the…
Chromosome enumeration is an essential but tedious procedure in karyotyping analysis. To automate the enumeration process, we develop a chromosome enumeration framework, DeepACEv2, based on the region based object detection scheme. The…
Pathogenic chromosome abnormalities are very common among the general population. While numerical chromosome abnormalities can be quickly and precisely detected, structural chromosome abnormalities are far more complex and typically require…
We present a weakly supervised deep learning method to perform instance segmentation of cells present in microscopy images. Annotation of biomedical images in the lab can be scarce, incomplete, and inaccurate. This is of concern when…
In this work, we propose a new segmentation algorithm for images containing convex objects present in multiple shapes with a high degree of overlap. The proposed algorithm is carried out in two steps, first we identify the visible contours,…
This work considers semi-supervised segmentation as a dense prediction problem based on prototype vector correlation and proposes a simple way to represent each segmentation class with multiple prototypes. To avoid degenerate solutions, two…
Traditional semantic segmentation methods can recognize at test time only the classes that are present in the training set. This is a significant limitation, especially for semantic segmentation algorithms mounted on intelligent autonomous…
Segmentation, or the outlining of objects within images, is a critical step in the measurement and analysis of cells within microscopy images. While improvements continue to be made in tools that rely on classical methods for segmentation,…
Cell instance segmentation in cytology images has significant importance for biology analysis and cancer screening, while remains challenging due to 1) the extensive overlapping translucent cell clusters that cause the ambiguous boundaries,…
Understanding genetic variation, e.g., through mutations, in organisms is crucial to unravel their effects on the environment and human health. A fundamental characterization can be obtained by solving the haplotype assembly problem, which…
