Frozen sectioning (FS) is the preparation method of choice for microscopic evaluation of tissues during surgical operations. The high speed of the procedure allows pathologists to rapidly assess the key microscopic features, such as tumour margins and malignant status to guide surgical decision-making and minimise disruptions to the course of the operation. However, FS is prone to introducing many misleading artificial structures (histological artefacts), such as nuclear ice crystals, compression, and cutting artefacts, hindering timely and accurate diagnostic judgement of the pathologist. Additional training and prolonged experience is often required to make highly effective and time-critical diagnosis on frozen sections. On the other hand, the gold standard tissue preparation technique of formalin-fixation and paraffin-embedding (FFPE) provides significantly superior image quality, but is a very time-consuming process (12-48 hours), making it unsuitable for intra-operative use. In this paper, we propose an artificial intelligence (AI) method that improves FS image quality by computationally transforming frozen-sectioned whole-slide images (FS-WSIs) into whole-slide FFPE-style images in minutes. AI-FFPE rectifies FS artefacts with the guidance of an attention mechanism that puts a particular emphasis on artefacts while utilising a self-regularization mechanism established between FS input image and synthesized FFPE-style image that preserves clinically relevant features. As a result, AI-FFPE method successfully generates FFPE-style images without significantly extending tissue processing time and consequently improves diagnostic accuracy. We demonstrate the efficacy of AI-FFPE on lung and brain frozen sections using a variety of different qualitative and quantitative metrics including visual Turing tests from 20 board certified pathologists.

There are large amount of valuable video archives in Video Home System (VHS) format. However, due to the analog nature, their quality is often poor. Compared to High-definition television (HDTV), VHS video not only has a dull color appearance but als
o has a lower resolution and often appears blurry. In this paper, we focus on the problem of translating VHS video to HDTV video and have developed a solution based on a novel unsupervised multi-task adversarial learning model. Inspired by the success of generative adversarial network (GAN) and CycleGAN, we employ cycle consistency loss, adversarial loss and perceptual loss together to learn a translation model. An important innovation of our work is the incorporation of super-resolution model and color transfer model that can solve unsupervised multi-task problem. To our knowledge, this is the first work that dedicated to the study of the relation between VHS and HDTV and the first computational solution to translate VHS to HDTV. We present experimental results to demonstrate the effectiveness of our solution qualitatively and quantitatively.
Accurate estimation of the positions and shapes of microscale objects is crucial for automated imaging-guided manipulation using a non-contact technique such as optical tweezers. Perception methods that use traditional computer vision algorithms tend
to fail when the manipulation environments are crowded. In this paper, we present a deep learning model for semantic segmentation of the images representing such environments. Our model successfully performs segmentation with a high mean Intersection Over Union score of 0.91.
Brain tumor segmentation is a challenging problem in medical image analysis. The goal of brain tumor segmentation is to generate accurate delineation of brain tumor regions with correctly located masks. In recent years, deep learning methods have sho
wn very promising performance in solving various computer vision problems, such as image classification, object detection and semantic segmentation. A number of deep learning based methods have been applied to brain tumor segmentation and achieved impressive system performance. Considering state-of-the-art technologies and their performance, the purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive survey of recently developed deep learning based brain tumor segmentation techniques. The established works included in this survey extensively cover technical aspects such as the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches, pre- and post-processing frameworks, datasets and evaluation metrics. Finally, we conclude this survey by discussing the potential development in future research work.
Automatic segmentation of liver tumors in medical images is crucial for the computer-aided diagnosis and therapy. It is a challenging task, since the tumors are notoriously small against the background voxels. This paper proposes a new three-stage cu
rriculum learning approach for training deep networks to tackle this small object segmentation problem. The learning in the first stage is performed on the whole input to obtain an initial deep network for tumor segmenta-tion. Then the second stage of learning focuses the strength-ening of tumor specific features by continuing training the network on the tumor patches. Finally, we retrain the net-work on the whole input in the third stage, in order that the tumor specific features and the global context can be inte-grated ideally under the segmentation objective. Benefitting from the proposed learning approach, we only need to em-ploy one single network to segment the tumors directly. We evaluated our approach on the 2017 MICCAI Liver Tumor Segmentation challenge dataset. In the experiments, our approach exhibits significant improvement compared with the commonly used cascaded counterpart.
Using histopathological images to automatically classify cancer is a difficult task for accurately detecting cancer, especially to identify metastatic cancer in small image patches obtained from larger digital pathology scans. Computer diagnosis tech
nology has attracted wide attention from researchers. In this paper, we propose a noval method which combines the deep learning algorithm in image classification, the DenseNet169 framework and Rectified Adam optimization algorithm. The connectivity pattern of DenseNet is direct connections from any layer to all consecutive layers, which can effectively improve the information flow between different layers. With the fact that RAdam is not easy to fall into a local optimal solution, and it can converge quickly in model training. The experimental results shows that our model achieves superior performance over the other classical convolutional neural networks approaches, such as Vgg19, Resnet34, Resnet50. In particular, the Auc-Roc score of our DenseNet169 model is 1.77% higher than Vgg19 model, and the Accuracy score is 1.50% higher. Moreover, we also study the relationship between loss value and batches processed during the training stage and validation stage, and obtain some important and interesting findings.
