Reduced and stable feature sets selection with random forest for neurons segmentation in histological images of macaque brain
Abstract In preclinical research, histology images are produced using powerful optical microscopes to digitize entire sections at cell scale. Quantification of stained tissue relies on machine learning driven segmentation. However, such methods require multiple additional information, or features, w...

Abstract In preclinical research, histology images are produced using powerful optical microscopes to digitize entire sections at cell scale.
