Abstract
The instant disclosure provides methods of extracting stain-independent features from digital images of histologically stained cells. Stain-independent features provide consistent assessment of cell morphology in the presence of staining variation and across different stains or stain formulations. Improved consistency in cell morphology assessments finds use in automated cell classification and other image processing applications. Also included are systems for practicing the described methods. The instant disclosure also provides computer readable media storing instructions that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device and/or components of a described system to perform steps of a method involving of extraction of stain-independent features from digital images.
