Abstract
A method for training a neural network for detecting a plurality of classes of object within a sample comprises providing a training data set comprising a plurality of samples, each annotated according to whether the samples include labelled objects of interest. In a first type of samples, all objects of interest are labelled according to their class and comprise a foreground of the samples, the remainder of the samples comprising background. In a second type of samples, some objects of interest are labelled in a foreground and their background may comprise unlabelled objects. A third type of samples comprise only background comprising no objects of interest. Negative mining is only performed on the results of processing the first and third types of samples.
