The proposed framework generates stain-augmented versions of training images using stain matrix perturbation, which is then combined with a stain regularisation loss to enforce consistency between feature representations. This encourages the model to learn stain-invariant and domain-invariant feature representations, ultimately improving performance in cross-domain multi-class tissue type classification of colorectal cancer images.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The researchers developed a way to create fake versions of training images by changing the staining process. They also added a special loss function that makes sure the model learns features that are not specific to certain stains or domains. This helps the model work better when classifying different types of tissue samples, especially when the staining process is different.
