The subject disclosure presents systems and computer-implemented methods for assessing a risk of cancer recurrence in a patient based on a holistic integration of large amounts of prognostic information for said patient into a single comparative prognostic dataset. A risk classification system may be trained using the large amounts of information from a cohort of training slides from several patients, along with survival data for said patients. For example, a machine-learning-based binary classifier in the risk classification system may be trained using a set of granular image features computed from a plurality of slides corresponding to several cancer patients whose survival information is known and input into the system. The trained classifier may be used to classify image features from one or more test patients into a low-risk or high-risk group.
