Machine learning to analyze colon glands

Malignant colorectal cancer

October 3, 2017

Machine learning to analyze colon glands

Due to the large variability of biological tissue, machine learning techniques have shown superior performance over conventional image processing methods. Here, researchers present a deep neural network-based approach for segmentation and classification of glands in tissue of benign and malignant colorectal cancer.

I told my colleagues that PeerJ is a journal where they need to publish if they want their paper to be published quickly and with the strict peer review expected from a good journal.
