Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for adjusting attributes of whole slide images, including stains therein. A portion of a whole slide image comprised of a plurality of pixels in a first color space and including one or more stains may be received as input. Based on an identified stain type of the stain(s), a machine-learned transformation associated with the stain type may be retrieved and applied to convert an identified subset of the pixels from the first to a second color space specific to the identified stain type. One or more attributes of the stain(s) may be adjusted in the second color space to generate a stain-adjusted subset of pixels, which are then converted back to the first color space using an inverse of the machine-learned transformation. A stain-adjusted portion of the whole slide image including at least the stain-adjusted subset of pixels may be provided as output.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for generating synthetic medical images, including images presenting rare conditions or morphologies for which sufficient data may be unavailable. In one aspect, style transfer methods may be used. For example, a target medical image, a segmentation mask identifying style(s) to be transferred to area(s) of the target, and source medical image(s) including the style(s) may be received. Using the mask, the target may be divided into tile(s) corresponding to the area(s) and input to a trained machine learning system. For each tile, gradients associated with a content and style of the tile may be output by the system. Pixel(s) of at least one tile of the target may be altered based on the gradients to maintain content of the target while transferring the style(s) of the source(s) to the target. The synthetic medical image may be generated from the target based on the altering.
