PROJECT TITLE :

Locality sensitive Deep Learning for detection and Classification of nuclei in routine colon cancer Histology images - 2016

ABSTRACT:

Detection and classification of cell nuclei in histopathology images of cancerous tissue stained with the quality hematoxylin and eosin stain could be a difficult task thanks to cellular heterogeneity. Deep Learning approaches have been shown to supply encouraging results on histopathology images in varied studies. During this paper, we have a tendency to propose a Spatially Constrained Convolutional Neural Network (SC-CNN) to perform nucleus detection. SC-CNN regresses the likelihood of a pixel being the center of a nucleus, where high likelihood values are spatially constrained to find in the vicinity of the centers of nuclei. For classification of nuclei, we have a tendency to propose a novel Neighboring Ensemble Predictor (NEP) let alone CNN to more accurately predict the category label of detected cell nuclei. The proposed approaches for detection and classification don't need segmentation of nuclei. We have a tendency to have evaluated them on a giant dataset of colorectal adenocarcinoma images, consisting of a lot of than twenty,00zero annotated nuclei belonging to four completely different categories. Our results show that the joint detection and classification of the proposed SC-CNN and NEP produces the highest average F1 score as compared to other recently revealed approaches. Prospectively, the proposed ways might offer profit to pathology apply in terms of quantitative analysis of tissue constituents in whole-slide pictures, and potentially cause a higher understanding of cancer.
