Context-Aware Convolutional Neural Network for Grading of Colorectal Cancer Histology Images
Open accessAbstract
Digital histology images are amenable to the application of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for analysis due to the sheer size of pixel data present in them. CNNs are generally used for representation learning from small image patches (e.g. 224×224 ) extracted from digital histology images due to computational and memory constraints. However, this approach does not incorporate high-resolution contextual information in histology images. We propose a novel way to incorporate a larger context by a context-aware neural network based on images with a dimension of 1792×1792 pixels. The proposed framework first encodes the local representation of a histology image into high dimensional features then aggregates the features by considering their spatial organization to make a final prediction. We evaluated the proposed method on two colorectal cancer datasets for the task of cancer grading. Our method outperformed the traditional patch-based approaches, problem-specific methods, and existing context-based methods. We also presented a comprehensive analysis of different variants of the proposed method.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
