Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described through embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Example one
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of an image feature extraction method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The technical scheme of the embodiment is suitable for the condition of automatically identifying the tumor according to the pathological image. The method can be executed by the image feature extraction device provided by the embodiment of the invention, and the device can be realized in a software and/or hardware manner and is configured to be applied in a processor. The method specifically comprises the following steps:
s101, gray-level pathological images of pathological sections are obtained.
Among them, the image of the physiological slice collected by the medical microscope is usually a color pathological image. And if the resolution of each acquired color pathological image is the same, directly converting the acquired color pathological images into gray pathological images. And if the resolution ratios of the acquired color pathological images are different, converting the acquired color pathological images into gray pathological images with the same resolution ratio. It can be understood that when physiological slice images with different resolutions are converted into gray pathological images with the same resolution, color pathological images with different resolutions can be converted into color pathological images with the same resolution, and then the color pathological images with uniform resolution can be converted into gray pathological images; or the color pathological images with different resolutions can be converted into gray pathological images respectively, and then the resolutions of the generated gray pathological images are unified to the same resolution.
S102, controlling at least two masks with different scales to move on the gray pathological image pixel by pixel, calculating a characteristic value corresponding to each movement result, and splicing all the characteristic values corresponding to each mask together to form a characteristic vector for representing the structured characteristic of the gray pathological image, wherein the masks comprise white areas and black areas which are opposite in number, and the black areas are rectangular areas at least containing one corner of the masks.
After the gray pathological image is obtained, controlling at least two masks with different scales to move on the gray pathological image pixel by pixel, calculating the sum of pixel gray values of the covering area of the mask on the gray pathological image at the end of each movement to serve as a feature value of the current movement, taking all feature values corresponding to each mask as feature vectors corresponding to the masks and used for representing the structured features of the gray pathological image, and splicing the feature vectors corresponding to each mask together to form the feature vector used for representing the structured features of the gray pathological image. It will be understood that the information features carried by the feature vectors corresponding to all masks are the same as the information features carried by the feature vectors formed by stitching together the feature vectors of all masks.
The method for moving the mask on the gray pathological image comprises the steps of enabling an upper left corner element of the mask to coincide with an upper left corner pixel of the gray pathological image, controlling the mask to move to the right pixel by pixel on the gray pathological image until the upper right corner element of the mask coincides with the upper right corner element of the gray pathological image, controlling the upper left corner element of the mask to move to the position of a first pixel of a second line of the gray pathological image, controlling the mask to move to the right pixel by pixel until the upper right corner element of the mask coincides with a last element of the second line of the gray pathological image, and controlling the mask to move in an S shape until the lower right corner element of the mask coincides with the lower right corner pixel of the gray pathological image. It should be noted that the present embodiment specifically limits the movement manner of the mask as long as the mask is made to traverse all pixels of the grayscale pathology image.
The number of the masks in this embodiment is preferably greater than or equal to three, each mask includes a black area and a white area, which are opposite to each other, the black area is less than or equal to the white area, and the black area at least includes a rectangular area at one corner of the mask, for example, the black area is 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, etc. of the mask. Preferably, the black area is 1/4 of the mask, each element of which is-1, and the white area is the remaining 3/4 of which each element of which is 1, as shown in fig. 2A and 2B. In order to increase the extraction speed of the feature vector, the present embodiment preferably uses masks of 2 × 2, 4 × 4, and 8 × 8 sizes, and the black area of each mask is an area 1/4 of the upper right corner of the mask.
The characteristic value of each movement result of the mask on the gray pathological image is as follows: f. of i =sum(M×Gray i ) Wherein f is i Features corresponding to the ith movement of the current mask on the gray-scale pathological imageAnd the eigenvalue, M is a coefficient matrix of the mask, and Grayi is a gray value matrix of the coverage area of the current mask on the gray pathological image.
Preferably, in order to increase the calculation speed of the feature vector, in this embodiment, an integral map of the gray-scale pathology image is first obtained, then at least two masks with different scales are controlled to move on the integral map pixel by pixel, a feature value corresponding to each movement is calculated, and all feature values corresponding to each mask are taken as the feature vector of the mask. Each pixel point of the integral graph is the sum of gray values of all pixel points in a rectangular area surrounded by an upper left corner pixel point of the gray pathological image and each target pixel point, and the sum is specifically as follows:
Figure BDA0002184519290000081
wherein i (x ', y') is the gray value of the pixel point with the coordinate (x ', y'), and (x, y) is the coordinate of the target pixel point.
After the integral graph is determined, any rectangular mask located at any position of the integral graph can obtain the characteristic value of the rectangular mask through a table look-up method and limited simple operation, and the operation amount of obtaining the characteristic value corresponding to each mask is greatly reduced. As shown in fig. 3:
the integral of point 1 is S1= Sum (Ra);
the integral at point 2 is S2= Sum (Ra) + Sum (Rb);
the integral at point 3 is S3= Sum (Ra) + Sum (Rc);
the integral at point 4 is S4= Sum (Ra) + Sum (Rb) -Sum (Rc) -Sum (Rd);
the sum (integral) of the pixel values of all points in the region Rd can be expressed as:
Sum(Rd)=S1+S4-S2-S3
therefore, no matter how large the size of the rectangle Rd is, the sum (integral) of the pixel gray values of the Rd can be obtained by searching the integral graph for 4 times at most, the operation speed is high, and the extraction speed of the feature vector is greatly improved.
The technical scheme of the image feature extraction method provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises the following steps: acquiring a gray level pathological image of a pathological section; controlling at least two masks with different scales to move on a gray pathological image pixel by pixel, calculating a characteristic value corresponding to each movement result, and splicing all the characteristic values corresponding to each mask together to form a characteristic vector for representing the structural characteristics of the gray pathological image, wherein the masks comprise white areas and black areas which are opposite in number, and the black areas are rectangular areas at least containing one corner of the masks. By obtaining the characteristic value of the overlapped part of each mask and the gray pathological image, the structured characteristic of the gray pathological image is extracted by taking the mask as a unit, and the structured characteristic contains regional difference information of the gray pathological image, so that the tumor identification accuracy of the tumor identification model is improved.
