Abstract

Systems and methods for image classification include receiving imaging data of in-vivo or excised tissue of a patient during a surgical procedure. Local image features are extracted from the imaging data. A vocabulary histogram for the imaging data is computed based on the extracted local image features. A classification of the in-vivo or excised tissue of the patient in the imaging data is determined based on the vocabulary histogram using a trained classifier, which is trained based on a set of sample images with confirmed tissue types.
