Abstract
Computer-implemented methods and systems are provided for automatically identifying features of a cytology specimen. An example method can involve dividing a whole slide image of the cytology specimen into a plurality of image portions; applying a first neural network to each image portion to identify one or more relevant image portions; and applying a second neural network to a first relevant image portion and a second relevant image portion to generate a respective first and second cell data. Each relevant image portion can be an image portion containing a region of interest for the cytology specimen. The method can further involve comparing the first and second cell data to determine whether a similarity threshold is satisfied; and in response to determining the similarity threshold is not satisfied, continuing to apply the second neural network to a subsequent relevant image portion until the similarity threshold is satisfied.
