Abstract

An automatic abnormal cell recognition method, the method including: 1) scanning a slide using a digital pathological scanner and obtaining a cytological slide image; 2) obtaining a set of centroid coordinates of all nuclei that is denoted as CentroidOfNucleus by automatically localizing nuclei of all cells in the cytological slide image using a feature fusion based localizing method; 3) obtaining a set of cell square region of interest (ROI) images that are denoted as ROI_images; 4) grouping all cell images in the ROI_images into different groups based on sampling without replacement, where each group contains ROW×COLUMN cell images with preset ROW and COLUMN parameters; obtaining a set of splice images; and 5) classifying all cell images in the splice image simultaneously by using the splice image as an input of a trained deep neural network; and recognizing cells classified as abnormal categories.
