ORGAN IDENTIFICATION USING AI

A computer-implemented method of identifying a tissue type in digital histological images of human or animal tissue comprises training a convolutional neural network CNN to identify a particular target tissue type in a plurality of training data sets of digital histological images, inputting a test data set of digital histological images into the trained convolutional neural network, receiving as an output result of the convolutional neural network a probability value that the inputted test data set corresponds to the target tissue type. A training procedure of the CNN comprises performing with a plurality of training data sets the steps of selecting a target tissue area of the training data set, dividing the target tissue area into a different sets of tiles of constant size but having different image magnifications, inputting the sets of tiles into a multi-headed convolutional neural network, wherein the sets of tiles having different image magnifications are processed in parallel and the features of the sets of tiles are concatenated.
