Harmonizing immune cell sequences for computational analysis with large language models.

We present SEQuence Weighted Alignment for Sorting and Harmonization (Seqwash), an algorithm designed to process sequencing profiles utilizing large language models. Seqwash immune cell sequences into a unified representation, empowering LLMs to embed meaningful patterns while eliminating irrelevant information. Evaluations using immune cell sequencing data showcase Seqwash's efficacy in standardizing profiles, leading to improved feature quality and enhanced performance in both supervised and unsupervised downstream tasks for sequencing data.

Sequential Patching Lattice for Image Classification and Enquiry: Streamlining Digital Pathology Image Processing.

Digital pathology and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) models have revolutionized histopathology, opening new opportunities. With the increasing availability of whole-slide images (WSIs), demand is growing for efficient retrieval, processing, and analysis of relevant images from vast biomedical archives. However, processing WSIs presents challenges due to their large size and content complexity.

Analysis and Validation of Image Search Engines in Histopathology.

Searching for similar images in archives of histology and histopathology images is a crucial task that may aid in patient tissue comparison for various purposes, ranging from triaging and diagnosis to prognosis and prediction. Whole slide images (WSIs) are highly detailed digital representations of tissue specimens mounted on glass slides. Matching WSI to WSI can serve as the critical method for patient tissue comparison.

Creating an atlas of normal tissue for pruning WSI patching through anomaly detection.

Patching whole slide images (WSIs) is an important task in computational pathology. While most of them are designed to classify or detect the presence of pathological lesions in a WSI, the confounding role and redundant nature of normal histology are generally overlooked. In this paper, we propose and validate the concept of an "atlas of normal tissue" solely using samples of WSIs obtained from normal biopsies.

Learning to predict RNA sequence expressions from whole slide images with applications for search and classification.

Deep learning methods are widely applied in digital pathology to address clinical challenges such as prognosis and diagnosis. As one of the most recent applications, deep models have also been used to extract molecular features from whole slide images. Although molecular tests carry rich information, they are often expensive, time-consuming, and require additional tissue to sample.
