Learning discriminative classification models for grading anal intraepithelial neoplasia

Grading intraepithelial neoplasia is crucial to derive an accurate estimate of pre-cancerous stages and is currently performed by pathologists assessing histopathological images. Inter- and intra-observer variability can significantly be reduced, when reliable, quantitative image analysis is introduced into diagnostic processes. On a challenging dataset, we evaluated the potential of learning a classifier to grade anal intraepitelial neoplasia. Support vector machines were trained on images represented by fractal and statistical features. We show that pursuing a learning-based grading strategy yields highly reliable results. Compared to existing methods, the proposed method outperformed them by a significant margin
