Annotation-free deep learning for predicting gene mutations from whole slide images of acute myeloid leukemia

The rapid development of deep learning has revolutionized medical image processing, including analyzing whole slide images (WSIs). Despite the demonstrated potential for characterizing gene mutations directly from WSIs in certain cancers, challenges remain due to image resolution and reliance on manual annotations for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We, therefore, propose a deep learning model based on multiple instance learning (MIL) with ensemble techniques to predict gene mutations from …
