The pore slides open

Virtual slides in peer reviewed, open access medical publication

BACKGROUND Application of virtual slides (VS), the digitalization of complete glass slides, is in its infancy to be implemented in routine diagnostic surgical pathology and to issues that are related to tissue-based diagnosis, such as education and scientific publication. APPROACH Electronic publication in Pathology offers new features of scientific communication in pathology that cannot be o...

An open-source, MATLAB based annotation tool for virtual slides

Background Computer aided analysis of virtual slide images has become an increasingly popular research topic and area of development. Novel applications are aimed for instance at automation of certain stages in sample assessment and assay readout (e.g. segmentation, detection, etc.) [2] or for reproducible measurement of a sample’s visual appearance (e.g. grading, morphological classes etc.) [3...

Consider the initial value problem u = f (u, t), u(t 0) = u 0 An mth order system of s equations can be reduced to a system of ms first order equations, by introducing new variables v 1 = u , v 2 = u ,. .. , v m−1 = u (m−1). The explicit time-dependency can be removed by introducing a new variable w = t with the trivial equation w = 1, to obtain a new autonomous system of equations A linear sys...

This paper describes an efficient algorithm to determine whether an arbitrary graph G can be embedded in the plane. The algorithm may be viewed as an iterative version of a method originally proposed by Auslander and Parter and correctly formulated by Goldstein. The algorithm uses depth-first search and has O(V) time and space bounds, where V is the number of vertices in G. An ALGOS implementat...
