How to learn with intentional mistakes: NoisyEnsembles to overcome poor tissue quality for deep learning in computational pathology.

There is a lot of recent interest in the field of computational pathology, as many algorithms are introduced to detect, for example, cancer lesions or molecular features. However, there is a large gap between artificial intelligence (AI) technology and practice, since only a small fraction of the applications is used in routine diagnostics. The main problems are the transferability of convolutional neural network (CNN) models to data from other sources and the identification of uncertain predictions.

Deep learning based on hematoxylin-eosin staining outperforms immunohistochemistry in predicting molecular subtypes of gastric adenocarcinoma.

In gastric cancer (GC), there are four molecular subclasses that indicate whether patients respond to chemotherapy or immunotherapy, according to the TCGA. In clinical practice, however, not every patient undergoes molecular testing. Many laboratories have used well-implemented in situ techniques (IHC and EBER-ISH) to determine the subclasses in their cohorts.

Deep Learning to Decipher the Progression and Morphology of Axonal Degeneration.

Axonal degeneration (AxD) is a pathological hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases. Deciphering the morphological patterns of AxD will help to understand the underlying mechanisms and develop effective therapies. Here, we evaluated the progression of AxD in cortical neurons using a novel microfluidic device together with a deep learning tool that we developed for the enhanced-throughput analysis of AxD on microscopic images.
