Abstract
Methods, apparatus, and other embodiments associated with classifying a region of cancerous tissue using a Histogram of Hosoya are described. One example apparatus includes a set of logics that acquires an image of a region of tissue demonstrating cancerous pathology, constructs a cell graph of the region of tissue, decomposes the cell graph into a set of subgraphs, computes a Hosoya Index for a subgraph, constructs a Histogram of Hosoya for the image based on the distribution of the subgraphs, and classifies the image based on the Histogram of Hosoya. Embodiments of example apparatus may generate and display the Histogram of Hosoya for the image. A prognosis for the patient may be provided based on the distribution of the histogram.
