Abstract
A computer system automatically converts a set of training images of cells (e.g., oocytes or pronuclear embryos) and related outcome metadata into a description document by extracting features (e.g., cytoplasm features) from the pixel values of the training images that describe the cells and associating the extracted features with the outcome metadata. Based on the description document, the system automatically computes a decision model that can be used to predict outcomes of new cells. To predict outcomes of new cells, a computer system automatically extracts features from images that describe the new cells and predicts one or more outcomes by applying the decision model. The features extracted from the images that describe the new cells correspond to features selected for inclusion in the decision model, and are calculated in the same way as the corresponding features extracted from the training images.
