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.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying tissue specimen types present in digital whole slide images. In some aspects, tissue specimen types may be identified using unsupervised machine learning techniques for out-of-distribution detection. For example, a digital whole slide image of a tissue specimen and a recorded tissue specimen type for the digital whole slide image may be received. One or more feature vectors may be extracted from one or more foreground tiles of the digital whole slide image identified as including the tissue specimen, and a distribution learned by a machine learning system for the recorded tissue specimen type may be received. Using the distribution, a probability of the feature vectors corresponding to the recorded tissue specimen type may be computed and used as a basis for classifying the foreground tiles from which the feature vectors are extracted as an in-distribution foreground tile or an out-of-distribution foreground tile.
