Abstract:
Computational pathology using computer vision techniques are required to standardize the disease stage evaluation for Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). In the following works, we perform:
Disease stage classification [1-5, 7]
The performance of various feature descriptors (Nuclei/Texture/Color/Deep-features) for disease stage of gliomas [1-4]
Subtype clustering/classification of low grade and high grade gliomas [6, 9, 10, 11]
AI models for predicting gene mutations (e.g. IDH1) from H & E + clinical data [8]
We test the performance of various feature descriptors - hand-tuned, ML, DL features. We develop, and benchmark various deep learning models, frameworks - MIL, ABMIL, and multimodal fusion approaches.
Disease Stage Classification and Significance of Features [1]
Subtype Classification with Ensemble Fusion AI (EFAI) [9]
