Read here the Facebook AI Research (FAIR) blog post on the collaboration between Radboud University Medical Center (Nijmegen, Netherlands), FAIR (Montreal, Canada) and Erasmus Medical Center (Rotterdam, Netherlands) on histopathology whole-slide image classification using whole-slide image compression with Neural Image Compression and Multitask learning, with application to prediction of a genetic score in breast cancer and patient outcome in colorectal cancer metastasis to the liver.
The work is related to the paper “Extending Unsupervised Neural Image Compression With Supervised Multitask Learning“.
