A large part of basic research at KIMIA Lab is concentrated at identification, tagging, captioning and search in Whole Slide Imaging (WSI) in digital pathology. We use diverse old and new techniques to learn how to generate barcodes for fast recognition of different tissue type such that we can discriminate healthy versus malignant tissue (figure: deep auto encoder for image tagging).
