Sparse coding of pathology slides compared to transfer learning with deep neural networks

Abstract Background Histopathology images of tumor biopsies present unique challenges for applying machine learning to the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. The pathology slides are high resolution, often exceeding 1GB, have non-uniform dimensions, and often contain multiple tissue slices of varyin...
