Abstract In many biological laboratories, biologists analyze images and identify cell or organ states manually. There are some problems: lack of human resource and high experimental costs, among others. Identification results vary according to the person. To solve these problems, the process automation of biologists’ operations and quantitative identification are needed. Here, a cell-foci-phenotype identification system is developed by applying image processing and machine learning methods to fluorescent cell images. With this system, cell-foci-phenotype with high accuracy can be predicted and biologists’ efforts in doing image analysis can be reduced.

Introduction. Over the past few decades, thanks to advances in algorithm development, the introduction of available computing power, and the management of large data sets, machine learning methods have become active in various fields of life. Among them, deep learning possesses a special place, which is used in many spheres of health care and is an integral part and prerequisite for the development of digital pathology. Objectives. The purpose of the review was to gather the data on existing image analysis technologies and machine learning tools developed for the whole-slide digital images in pathology. Methods: Analysis of the literature on machine learning methods used in pathology, staps of automated image analysis, types of neural networks, their application and capabilities in digital pathology was performed. Results. To date, a wide range of deep learning strategies have been developed, which are actively used in digital pathology, and demonstrated excellent diagnostic accuracy. In addition to diagnostic solutions, the integration of artificial intelligence into the practice of pathomorphological laboratory provides new tools for assessing the prognosis and prediction of sensitivity to different treatments. Conclusions: The synergy of artificial intelligence and digital pathology is a key tool to improve the accuracy of diagnostics, prognostication and personalized medicine facilitation

Abstract Objective Effective, scalable de-identification of personally identifying information (PII) for information-rich clinical text is critical to support secondary use, but no method is 100% effective. The hiding-in-plain-sight (HIPS) approach attempts to solve this “residual PII problem.” HIPS replaces PII tagged by a de-identification system with realistic but fictitious (resynthesized) content, making it harder to detect remaining unredacted PII. Materials and Methods Using 2000 representative clinical documents from 2 healthcare settings (4000 total), we used a novel method to generate 2 de-identified 100-document corpora (200 documents total) in which PII tagged by a typical automated machine-learned tagger was replaced by HIPS-resynthesized content. Four readers conducted aggressive reidentification attacks to isolate leaked PII: 2 readers from within the originating institution and 2 external readers. Results Overall, mean recall of leaked PII was 26.8% and mean precision was 37.2%. Mean recall was 9% (mean precision = 37%) for patient ages, 32% (mean precision = 26%) for dates, 25% (mean precision = 37%) for doctor names, 45% (mean precision = 55%) for organization names, and 23% (mean precision = 57%) for patient names. Recall was 32% (precision = 40%) for internal and 22% (precision =33%) for external readers. Discussion and Conclusions Approximately 70% of leaked PII “hiding” in a corpus de-identified with HIPS resynthesis is resilient to detection by human readers in a realistic, aggressive reidentification attack scenario—more than double the rate reported in previous studies but less than the rate reported for an attack assisted by machine learning methods.

Histopathological images (HIs) are the gold standard for evaluating some types of tumors for cancer diagnosis. The analysis of such images is time and resource-consuming and very challenging even for experienced pathologists, resulting in inter-observer and intra-observer disagreements. One of the ways of accelerating such an analysis is to use computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems. This paper presents a review on machine learning methods for histopathological image analysis, including shallow and deep learning methods. We also cover the most common tasks in HI analysis, such as segmentation and feature extraction. Besides, we present a list of publicly available and private datasets that have been used in HI research.
