Mixture of learners for cancer stem cell detection using CD13 and H and e stained images
In this article, algorithms for cancer stem cell (CSC) detection in liver cancer tissue images are developed. Conventionally, a pathologist examines of cancer cell morphologies under microscope. Computer aided diagnosis systems (CAD) aims to help pathologists in this tedious and repetitive work. The first algorithm locates CSCs in CD13 stained liver tissue images. The method has also an online learning algorithm to improve the accuracy of detection. The second family of algorithms classify the cancer tissues stained with H and E which is clinically routine and cost effective than immunohistochemistry (IHC) procedure. The algorithms utilize 1D-SIFT and Eigen-Analysis based feature sets as descriptors. Normal and cancerous tissues can be classified with 92.1% accuracy in H and E stained images. Classification accuracy of low and high-grade cancerous tissue images is 70.4%. Therefore, this study paves the way for diagnosing the cancerous tissue and grading the level of it using H and E stained microscopic tissue images. © 2016 SPIE
DETECTION OF CANCER STEM CELLS IN MICROSCOPIC IMAGES BY USING REGION COVARIANCE AND CODIFFERENCE METHOD
This paper presents a cancer stem cell detection method using region covariance and codifference method. It focuses on detection of Cancer Stem Cell (CSC) in microscopic images which are stained with CD13 marker. Features of CSC images are extracted by using both covariance method and its multiplication free version codifference method and these features are fed into a Support Vector Machine (SVM) for classification. Experimental results are presented
