Pattern Recognition in Histopathological Images: An ICPR 2010 Contest
نویسندگان
چکیده
The advent of digital whole-slide scanners in recent years has spurred a revolution in imaging technology for histopathology. In order to encourage further interest in histopathological image analysis, we have organized a contest called “Pattern Recognition in Histopathological Image Analysis.” This contest aims to bring some of the pressing issues facing the advance of the rapidly emerging field of digital histology image analysis to the attention of the wider pattern recognition and medical image analysis communities. Two sample histopathological problems are explored: counting lymphocytes and centroblasts. The background to these problems and the evaluation methodology are discussed.

Algorithm Performance Contest
This contest involved the running and evaluation of computer vision and pattern recognition techniques on different data sets with known groundtruth. The contest included three areas; binary shape recognition, symbol recognition and image flow estimation. A package was made available for each area. Each package contained either real images with manual groundtruth or programs to generate data se...
متن کاملHEp-2 Cell Classification via Fusing Texture and Shape Information
Indirect Immunofluorescence (IIF) HEp-2 cell image is an effective evidence for diagnosis of autoimmune diseases. Recently computer-aided diagnosis of autoimmune diseases by IIF HEp-2 cell classification has attracted great attention. However the HEp-2 cell classification task is quite challenging due to large intra-class variation and small between-class variation. In this paper we propose an ...

متن کاملBi-modal Handwritten Text Recognition (BiHTR) ICPR 2010 Contest Report
Handwritten text is generally captured through two main modalities: off-line and on-line. Each modality has advantages and disadvantages, but it seems clear that smart approaches to handwritten text recognition (HTR) should make use of both modalities in order to take advantage of the positive aspects of each one. A particularly interesting case where the need of this bi-modal processing arises...
متن کاملPicSOM Experiments in ImageCLEF RobotVision
The PicSOM multimedia analysis and retrieval system has previously been successfully applied to supervised concept detection in image and video databases. Such concepts include locations and events and objects of a particular type. In this paper we apply the generalpurpose visual category recognition algorithm in PicSOM to the recognition of indoor locations in the ImageCLEF/ICPR RobotVision 20...
