• Authors: Mohamed Mejri and Aymen Mejri and Oumayma Mejri and Chiraz Fekih
• Abstract summary: Several key features such as the smoothness and the texture of the tumor captured through ultrasound scans encode the abnormality of the breast tumors. In this paper, we are going to extract the region of interest ( i.e, bounding boxes of the tumors) and feed-forward them to one semantic segmentation encoder-decoder structure. The whole process aims to build an instance-based segmenter from a semantic segmenter and an object detector.

• Abstract: Breast cancer is one of the factors that cause the increase of mortality of women. The most widely used method for diagnosing this geological disease i.e. breast cancer is the ultrasound scan. Several key features such as the smoothness and the texture of the tumor captured through ultrasound scans encode the abnormality of the breast tumors (malignant from benign). However, ultrasound scans are often noisy and include irrelevant parts of the breast that may bias the segmentation of eventual tumors. In this paper, we are going to extract the region of interest ( i.e, bounding boxes of the tumors) and feed-forward them to one semantic segmentation encoder-decoder structure based on its classification (i.e, malignant or benign). the whole process aims to build an instance-based segmenter from a semantic segmenter and an object detector.

  Pathologists diagnose and grade prostate cancer by examining tissue from needle biopsies on glass slides. Cancer's severity and risk of metastasis are determined by the Gleason grade, a score based on the organization and morphology of prostate cancer glands. This paper proposes an automated workflow that follows pathologists' textitmodus operandi, isolating and classifying multi-scale patches of individual glands.
