Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods based on tumor infiltrating leukocyte (TIL) fractal geometry to predict clinical implications in breast cancer samples. Using machine learning techniques, an algorithmic classifier is constructed and trained on a cohort of tumor images (e.g. radiographic, immunohistochemical (IHC), and H&E images) to discriminate between TILs and cancer cells, and breast cancer samples are classified based on TIL fractal geometry/anatomic distribution in the tumor stroma. Fractal geometry-directed reassessment of classifications may prompt tumor type reclassification resulting in altered cancer therapy.

The immutable memory stores a first public key and a second public key in advance, and the first public key and the second public key are unmodifiable. The counter has an anti-rollback protection and counts a counting value. When the counting value is a first value, the processor selects a first public key corresponding to the first value. When the counting value is a second value, the processor selects the second public key corresponding to the second value. When the counting value is a third value, the processor selects the first public key and the second public key. The first value and the second value are in a first state, and the third value is in a second state, where the first state and the second state are different.
