Mucinous tissue #20

Closed YanisKouadri closed 6 months ago

YanisKouadri commented 7 months ago

Hello,

I have a question concerning the data used to train the model : Was mucinous tissue included in it?

When using UNI with CLAM, the attention scores seem incoherent if there is mucinous tissue in the slide. It tends to focus on the mucin rather than the tumor.

Hi Yanis, mucinous tissue was not used to train UNI. However, given the morphological similarities between species, UNI features could be considered. To compare, you can use ResNet50-Trunc-IN features originally used in CLAM.
