Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for training a machine learning model to segment magnified images of tissue samples. The method includes obtaining a magnified image of a tissue sample; processing an input comprising: the image, features derived from the image, or both, in accordance with current values of model parameters of a machine learning model to generate an automatic segmentation of the image into a plurality of tissue classes; providing, to a user through a user interface, an indication of: (i) the image, and (ii) the automatic segmentation of the image; determining an edited segmentation of the image, comprising applying modifications specified by the user to the automatic segmentation of the image; and determining updated values of the model parameters of the machine learning model based the edited segmentation of the image.
