  • Publication number: 20240046473
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to techniques for obtaining a synthetic immunohistochemistry (IHC) image from a histochemically stained image. Particularly, aspects of the present disclosure are directed to accessing an input image that depicts a tissue section that has been stained with at least one histochemical stain; generating a synthetic image by processing the input image using a trained generator network; and outputting the synthetic image. The synthetic image depicts a tissue section that has been stained with at least one IHC stain that targets a first antigen, and techniques may also include receiving an input that is based on a level of expression of a first antigen from the synthetic image and/or generating, from the synthetic image, a value that is based on a level of expression of the first antigen.

  • Publication number: 20240047012
    Abstract: Methods and systems may be provided to predict functional response based on a set of predictors for therapeutic proteins. For example, a method can comprise receiving input data comprising first input data related to a set of predictors and corresponding measured functional response associated with the set of predictors obtained from a first set of therapeutic protein samples and second input data related to the set of predictors and a second set of therapeutic protein samples for prediction of a functional response, wherein the set of predictors were selected as a combination of related biophysical attributes of therapeutic proteins based on a pre-determined criterion; training a machine learning model with the first input data; and using the machine learning model and the set of predictors to predict a functional response of the second set of therapeutic protein samples based on the second input data.

  • Publication number: 20240038393
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a current state of a medical condition or a progression of the medical condition is predicted by processing one or more digital pathology images and expression levels of genes using a machine-learning model. In some embodiments, one or more predicted gene-expression levels are generated by processing a data set corresponding to one or more digital pathology images using a machine-learning model. In some embodiments, one or more predicted digital pathology metrics are generated by processing a data set that corresponds to expression levels of a set of genes using a machine-learning model.
