Multi-scale fully convolutional neural networks for histopathology image segmentation: From nuclear aberrations to the global tissue architecture

چکیده
Histopathologic diagnosis relies on simultaneous integration of information from a broad range scales, ranging nuclear aberrations ($\approx \mathcal{O}(0.1{\mu m})$) through cellular structures \mathcal{O}(10{\mu to the global tissue architecture ($\gtrapprox \mathcal{O}(1{mm})$). To explicitly mimic how human pathologists combine multi-scale information, we introduce family multi-encoder FCNs with deep fusion. We present simple block for merging model paths differing spatial scales in relationship-preserving fashion, which can readily be included standard encoder-decoder networks. Additionally, context classification gate is proposed as an alternative incorporation context. Our experiments were performed three publicly available whole-slide images recent challenges (PAIP 2019, BACH 2020, CAMELYON 2016). The architectures consistently outperformed baseline single-scale U-Nets by large margin. They benefit local well and particularly combination both. If feature maps different are fused, doing so manner preserving relationships was found beneficial. Deep guidance loss appeared improve training at low computational costs. All models had reduced GPU memory footprint compared ensembles individual trained image scales. Additional path fusions shown possible cost, opening up possibilities further, systematic task-specific optimization. findings demonstrate potential presented human-inspired, end-to-end trainable, histopathologic extensive largely

Fully Convolutional Neural Networks for Crowd Segmentation
In this paper, we propose a fast fully convolutional neural network (FCNN) for crowd segmentation. By replacing the fully connected layers in CNN with 1 × 1 convolution kernels, FCNN takes whole images as inputs and directly outputs segmentation maps by one pass of forward propagation. It has the property of translation invariance like patch-by-patch scanning but with much lower computation cos...
متن کاملMulti-Scale Convolutional Architecture for Semantic Segmentation
Advances in 3D sensing technologies have made the availability of RGB and Depth information easier than earlier which can greatly assist in the semantic segmentation of 2D scenes. There are many works in literature that perform semantic segmentation in such scenes, but few relates to the environment that possesses a high degree of clutter in general e.g. indoor scenes. In this paper, we explore...
متن کاملUncertainty Driven Multi-loss Fully Convolutional Networks for Histopathology
Different works have shown that the combination of multiple loss functions is beneficial when training deep neural networks for a variety of prediction tasks. Generally, such multi-loss approaches are implemented via a weighted multi-loss objective function in which each term encodes a different desired inference criterion. The importance of each term is often set using empirically tuned hyper-...
متن کاملFast PET reconstruction using Multi-scale Fully Convolutional Neural Networks
Reconstruction of PET images is an ill-posed inverse problem and often requires iterative algorithms to achieve good image quality for reliable clinical use in practice, at huge computational costs. In this paper, we consider the PET reconstruction a dense prediction problem where the large scale contextual information is essential, and propose a novel architecture of multi-scale fully convolut...
متن کاملSingle Image Dehazing via Multi-scale Convolutional Neural Networks
The performance of existing image dehazing methods is limited by hand-designed features, such as the dark channel, color disparity and maximum contrast, with complex fusion schemes. In this paper, we propose a multi-scale deep neural network for single-image dehazing by learning the mapping between hazy images and their corresponding transmission maps. The proposed algorithm consists of a coars...
