DeCo-MIL: Debiased Counterfactual Reasoning for Long-Tailed Whole Slide Image Analysis
Xiaoxiao Li, Xitong Ling, Jiawen Li +6
Multiple instance learning (MIL) is widely used for weakly supervised whole slide image (WSI) analysis. However, under long-tailed distributions, MIL-based WSI analysis faces a nes…
ALICE: Learning a General-Purpose Pathology Foundation Model from Vision, Vision-Language, and Slide-Level Experts
Jiawen Li, Tian Guan, Huijuan Shi +5
Foundation models are reshaping computational pathology, yet their capabilities remain shaped by pretraining objectives, data sources, and spatial scales, fragmenting complementary…
SlideCheck: Guiding Self-Supervised Pretraining of Pathology Foundation Models via Dataset Distributions
Mingyi He, Xinyi Guo, Xitong Ling +7
Pathology foundation models are pretrained on large streams of WSI-derived patches, while supervision during data construction is often slide-level, sparse, or heterogeneous. This…
Is Class Signal Clustered or Routed in Task-Induced Implicit Neural Representation Weight Spaces?
Xinyi Guo, Mingyi He, Haobin Ding +7
Implicit neural representations (INRs) encode images as neural-network weights, making image classification a problem of weight-space classifiability. A natural geometric hypothesi…
Beyond ViT Tokens: Masked-Diffusion Pretrained Convolutional Pathology Foundation Model for Cell-Level Dense Prediction
Weiming Chen, Xitong Ling, Zhenyang Cai +5
Cell-level dense prediction is central to computational pathology, but remains challenging due to fine-grained histological structures, strong domain shifts, and costly dense annot…
A Digital Pathology Resource for Liver Cancer Quantification with Datasets, Benchmarks, and Tools
Ying Xiao, Shimiao Tang, Xitong Ling +11
Liver cancer, especially hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), imposes a substantial global disease burden. Accurate diagnosis and prognostic assessment directly influence treatment sele…
