BIOS-08. CISD: A NOVEL, USER-FRIENDLY MULTIFACETED ALGORITHM FOR DETECTING STITCHING ARTIFACTS IN LARGE-SCALE CODEX IMAGING DATASETS

Abstract BACKGROUND CODEX (CO-Detection by indEXing) imaging has emerged as a pivotal tool in cellular biology, providing unprecedented insights into cellular distributions and interactions within the tissue microenvironment, crucial for advancing computational pathology. Despite its advantages, CODEX is susceptible to stitching errors during the merging of image tiles, which can significantly distort spatial analysis by introducing artifacts that obscure true cellular architecture. METHODS Addressing this challenge, we introduce CISD (CODEX Image Stitch Detection), a novel, user-friendly algorithm optimized for the detection of stitching artifacts in large-scale CODEX datasets. Developed and validated using a comprehensive dataset from 7 matched glioblastoma patients—encompassing over 2800 images across 29 immune protein markers—CISD utilizes a combination of image preprocessing, statistical measures, and thresholding to detect stitching errors. RESULTS CISD demonstrates robust performance, achieving a median Area Under Curve (AUC) value in the gold standard dataset where 73% of markers exceed 70% AUC, and 17% surpass 90%. Further validation shows that in a secondary dataset, 45% of markers maintain AUC values over 70% with 38% exceeding 90%, validating the algorithm’s consistent efficacy across varied datasets. CONCLUSION CISD’s significance lies not only in its computational achievements but also in its accessibility, facilitating high-quality analysis of extensive datasets without complex pattern recognition requirements. This democratizes high-precision computational pathology, enabling more researchers to accurately analyze spatial data. By reducing technical barriers, CISD sets a new benchmark in CODEX imaging, enhancing data reliability and accelerating research discoveries in cellular biology. This innovation stands to substantially refine spatial analysis in digital pathology, ensuring dependable interpretation of complex biological data.

MMS-EF: A Multi-Scale Modular Extraction Framework for Enhancing Deep Learning Models in Remote Sensing

The analysis of land cover using deep learning techniques plays a pivotal role in understanding land use dynamics, which is crucial for land management, urban planning, and cartography. However, due to the complexity of remote sensing images, deep learning models face practical challenges in the preprocessing stage, such as incomplete extraction of large-scale geographic features, loss of fine details, and misalignment issues in image stitching. To address these issues, this paper introduces the Multi-Scale Modular Extraction Framework (MMS-EF) specifically designed to enhance deep learning models in remote sensing applications. The framework incorporates three key components: (1) a multiscale overlapping segmentation module that captures comprehensive geographical information through multi-channel and multiscale processing, ensuring the integrity of large-scale features; (2) a multiscale feature fusion module that integrates local and global features, facilitating seamless image stitching and improving classification accuracy; and (3) a detail enhancement module that refines the extraction of small-scale features, enriching the semantic information of the imagery. Extensive experiments were conducted across various deep learning models, and the framework was validated on two public datasets. The results demonstrate that the proposed approach effectively mitigates the limitations of traditional preprocessing methods, significantly improving feature extraction accuracy and exhibiting strong adaptability across different datasets.

Seam estimation based on dense matching for parallax-tolerant image stitching

Image stitching with large parallax poses a significant challenge in the field of computer vision. Existing seam-based approaches attempt to address parallax artifacts by stitching images along seams. However, issues such as object mismatches, disappearances, and duplications still arise occasionally, primarily due to inaccurate alignment of dense pixels or inappropriate seam estimation methods. In this paper, we propose a robust seam-based parallax-tolerant image stitching method that leverages dense flow estimation from state-of-the-art approaches. Firstly, we develop a seam estimation method that does not require pre-estimation of image warping model. Instead, it directly estimates the seam by measuring the local smoothness of the optical flow field and incorporating a penalty term for duplications. Subsequently, we design an iterative algorithm that utilizes the location of estimated seam to solve a spatial smooth warping model and eliminate outlier corresponding pairs. By employing this approach, we effectively address the intertwined challenges of estimating the warping model and seam. Experiment on real-world images shows that our proposed method achieves superior local alignment accuracy near the stitching seam and outperforms other state-of-the-art techniques on visual stitching result.

The three innermost layers of the ALICE Inner Tracking System (ITS2) will be replaced by a truly cylindrical tracker, the ITS3, to be ready for LHC Run 4 (2029-2032). The ITS3 will be composed of three layers, each made by two self-supporting, ultra-thin (≤50μm) flexible Monolithic Active Pixel silicon Sensors (MAPS) of large area (O(10 × 26 cm2)).

This contribution will give an overview of the most recent results of the digital prototype tests.

Unmanned aerial vehicle image stitching based on multi‐region segmentation

AbstractUnmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) image stitching is a key technology for aerial remote sensing applications. Most existing image stitching methods based on optimal seamline searching algorithms can eliminate defects such as ghosting and distortion in stitched images, which unfortunately suffer from the problem that the seamline may cross those regions with significant geometric misalignment between different images. Therefore, a novel image stitching method based on multi‐region image segmentation is proposed. The algorithm starts by performing a multi‐scale morphological reconstruction in the overlapping regions between UAV images to obtain superpixel images with precise contours. Then, the fast density peaks clustering based on K‐nearest neighbours is applied to automatically determine the clustering centres and the number of clusters. By constructing a cost function, an energy map is generated in the overlapping regions between UAV images. Finally, the optimal seamline can be determined with a graph‐cut method. Compared to several popular image stitching algorithms in real experiments, the proposed method can essentially prevent the seamline from crossing significant ground objects to ensure the integrity of structural objects while achieving satisfactory accuracy and efficiency during the UAV image stitching process.

Enhancing Situational Awareness with VAS-Compass Net for the Recognition of Directional Vehicle Alert Sounds.

People with hearing impairments often face increased risks related to traffic accidents due to their reduced ability to perceive surrounding sounds. Given the cost and usage limitations of traditional hearing aids and cochlear implants, this study aims to develop a sound alert assistance system (SAAS) to enhance situational awareness and improve travel safety for people with hearing impairments. We proposed the VAS-Compass Net (Vehicle Alert Sound-Compass Net), which integrates three lightweight convolutional neural networks: EfficientNet-lite0, MobileNetV3-Small, and GhostNet. Through employing a fuzzy ranking ensemble technique, our proposed model can identify different categories of vehicle alert sounds and directions of sound sources on an edge computing device. The experimental dataset consisted of images derived from the sounds of approaching police cars, ambulances, fire trucks, and car horns from various directions. The audio signals were converted into spectrogram images and Mel-frequency cepstral coefficient images, and they were fused into a complete image using image stitching techniques. We successfully deployed our proposed model on a Raspberry Pi 5 microcomputer, paired with a customized smartwatch to realize an SAAS. Our experimental results demonstrated that VAS-Compass Net achieved an accuracy of 84.38% based on server-based computing and an accuracy of 83.01% based on edge computing. Our proposed SAAS has the potential to significantly enhance the situational awareness, alertness, and safety of people with hearing impairments on the road.

Image Stitching of Low-Resolution Retinography Using Fundus Blur Filter and Homography Convolutional Neural Network

Great advances in stitching high-quality retinal images have been made in recent years. On the other hand, very few studies have been carried out on low-resolution retinal imaging. This work investigates the challenges of low-resolution retinal images obtained by the D-EYE smartphone-based fundus camera. The proposed method uses homography estimation to register and stitch low-quality retinal images into a cohesive mosaic. First, a Siamese neural network extracts features from a pair of images, after which the correlation of their feature maps is computed. This correlation map is fed through four independent CNNs to estimate the homography parameters, each specializing in different corner coordinates. Our model was trained on a synthetic dataset generated from the Microsoft Common Objects in Context (MSCOCO) dataset; this work added an important data augmentation phase to improve the quality of the model. Then, the same is evaluated on the FIRE retina and D-EYE datasets for performance measurement using the Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Structural Similarity Index (SSIM). The obtained results are promising: the average PSNR was 26.14 dB, with an SSIM of 0.96 on the D-EYE dataset. Compared to the method that uses a single neural network for homography calculations, our approach improves the PSNR by 7.96 dB and achieves a 7.86% higher SSIM score.

Phenotyping of Panicle Number and Shape in Rice Breeding Materials Based on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Imagery.

The number of panicles per unit area (PNpA) is one of the key factors contributing to the grain yield of rice crops. Accurate PNpA quantification is vital for breeding high-yield rice cultivars. Previous studies were based on proximal sensing with fixed observation platforms or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The near-canopy images produced in these studies suffer from inefficiency and complex image processing pipelines that require manual image cropping and annotation. This study aims to develop an automated, high-throughput UAV imagery-based approach for field plot segmentation and panicle number quantification, along with a novel classification method for different panicle types, enhancing PNpA quantification at the plot level. RGB images of the rice canopy were efficiently captured at an altitude of 15 m, followed by image stitching and plot boundary recognition via a mask region-based convolutional neural network (Mask R-CNN). The images were then segmented into plot-scale subgraphs, which were categorized into 3 growth stages. The panicle vision transformer (Panicle-ViT), which integrates a multipath vision transformer and replaces the Mask R-CNN backbone, accurately detects panicles. Additionally, the Res2Net50 architecture classified panicle types with 4 angles of 0°, 15°, 45°, and 90°. The results confirm that the performance of Plot-Seg is comparable to that of manual segmentation. Panicle-ViT outperforms the traditional Mask R-CNN across all the datasets, with the average precision at 50% intersection over union (AP50) improved by 3.5% to 20.5%. The PNpA quantification for the full dataset achieved superior performance, with a coefficient of determination (R 2) of 0.73 and a root mean square error (RMSE) of 28.3, and the overall panicle classification accuracy reached 94.8%. The proposed approach enhances operational efficiency and automates the process from plot cropping to PNpA prediction, which is promising for accelerating the selection of desired traits in rice breeding.

Intraoral scanners (IOSs) have emerged as a cornerstone technology in digital dentistry. This article examines the recent advancements and multifaceted applications of IOSs, highlighting their benefits in patient care and addressing their current limitations. The IOS market has seen a competitive surge. Modern IOSs, featuring continuous image capture and advanced software for seamless image stitching, have made the scanning process more efficient. Patient comfort with IOS procedures is favorable, mitigating the discomfort associated with conventional impression taking. There has been a shift toward open data interfaces, notably enhancing interoperability. However, the integration of IOSs into large dental institutions is slow, facing challenges such as compatibility with existing health record systems and extensive data storage management. IOSs now extend beyond their use in computer-aided design and manufacturing, with software solutions transforming them into platforms for diagnostics, patient communication, and treatment planning. Several IOSs are equipped with tools for caries detection, employing fluorescence technologies or near-infrared imaging to identify carious lesions. IOSs facilitate quantitative monitoring of tooth wear and soft-tissue dimensions. For precise tooth segmentation in intraoral scans, essential for orthodontic applications, developers are leveraging innovative deep neural network-based approaches. The clinical performance of restorations fabricated based on intraoral scans has proven to be comparable to those obtained using conventional impressions, substantiating the reliability of IOSs in restorative dentistry. In oral and maxillofacial surgery, IOSs enhance airway safety during impression taking and aid in treating conditions such as cleft lip and palate, among other congenital craniofacial disorders, across diverse age groups. While IOSs have improved various aspects of dental care, ongoing enhancements in usability, diagnostic accuracy, and image segmentation are crucial to exploit the potential of this technology in optimizing patient care.

The device uses high-precision cameras to capture detailed images of bridge bottoms, facilitating a thorough condition assessment. It evaluates three feature point extraction algorithms for image stitching—Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT), Harris corner detection, and Speeded Up Robust Features (SURF)—to create complete visual representations of bridge undersides. Field tests on a prefabricated I girder bridge demonstrated the device's effectiveness in gathering and stitching images, with the SIFT algorithm performing best for girder bottoms, Harris corner algorithm for web and flange surfaces, and SURF for rapid image processing. This research provides a foundation for the rapid identification of visible defects on bridge superstructures, significantly benefiting bridge maintenance and safety evaluations.

Distinguishing of Histopathological Staging Features of H-E Stained Human cSCC by Microscopical Multispectral Imaging.

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the second most common malignant skin tumor. Early and precise diagnosis of tumor staging is crucial for long-term outcomes. While pathological diagnosis has traditionally served as the gold standard, the assessment of differentiation levels heavily depends on subjective judgments. Therefore, how to improve the diagnosis accuracy and objectivity of pathologists has become an urgent problem to be solved. We used multispectral imaging (MSI) to enhance tumor classification. The hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained cSCC slides were from Shanghai Ruijin Hospital. Scale-invariant feature transform was applied to multispectral images for image stitching, while the adaptive threshold segmentation method and random forest segmentation method were used for image segmentation, respectively. Synthetic pseudo-color images effectively highlight tissue differences. Quantitative analysis confirms significant variation in the nuclear area between normal and cSCC tissues (p < 0.001), supported by an AUC of 1 in ROC analysis. The AUC within cSCC tissues is 0.57. Further study shows higher nuclear atypia in poorly differentiated cSCC tissues compared to well-differentiated cSCC (p < 0.001), also with an AUC of 1. Lastly, well differentiated cSCC tissues show more and larger keratin pearls. These results have shown that combined MSI with imaging processing techniques will improve H&E stained human cSCC diagnosis accuracy, and it will be well utilized to distinguish histopathological staging features.

A UAV Thermal Imaging Format Conversion System and Its Application in Mosaic Surface Microthermal Environment Analysis.

UAV thermal infrared remote sensing technology, with its high flexibility and high temporal and spatial resolution, is crucial for understanding surface microthermal environments. Despite DJI Drones' industry-leading position, the JPG format of their thermal images limits direct image stitching and further analysis, hindering their broad application. To address this, a format conversion system, ThermoSwitcher, was developed for DJI thermal JPG images, and this system was applied to surface microthermal environment analysis, taking two regions with various local zones in Nanjing as the research area. The results showed that ThermoSwitcher can quickly and losslessly convert thermal JPG images to the Geotiff format, which is further convenient for producing image mosaics and for local temperature extraction. The results also indicated significant heterogeneity in the study area's temperature distribution, with high temperatures concentrated on sunlit artificial surfaces, and low temperatures corresponding to building shadows, dense vegetation, and water areas. The temperature distribution and change rates in different local zones were significantly influenced by surface cover type, material thermal properties, vegetation coverage, and building layout. Higher temperature change rates were observed in high-rise building and subway station areas, while lower rates were noted in water and vegetation-covered areas. Additionally, comparing the temperature distribution before and after image stitching revealed that the stitching process affected the temperature uniformity to some extent. The described format conversion system significantly enhances preprocessing efficiency, promoting advancements in drone remote sensing and refined surface microthermal environment research.

Development and Implementation of a Portable Cigarette Filter Holes Recognition Device Based on Low-Power Image Sensor and High-Precision Coaxial Rotary Scanning

During the cigarette production process, the detection of holes in the filters presents an urgent challenge for manufacturers. Utilizing image sensors offers an effective solution to tackle this challenge effectively. While current detection devices mitigate this issue through the use of auxiliary light source technology and sophisticated deep learning image processing, they are often large-scale, stationary, and demand substantial computational resources. To overcome this limitation, a low-power battery-powered portable filter holes detection device is designed based on image processing to facilitate portability and sampling. Additionally, backlight transmission lighting components are employed to guarantee aperture definition after imaging. Furthermore, a filter holes recognition algorithm is proposed based on multi-threshold combination of computer vision (CV). The algorithm forms a plan view of the circumference of the cigarette by image stitching, then performs filter holes detection and filters the results. Experimental results show that operators can easily carry the device for sampling and testing, and can accurately perform filter holes detection, and the results provide valuable insights into the adjustment of system parameters in the cigarette production process. This device significantly aids in enhancing efficiency during the manual inspection processes both in the testing room and at the equipment stations.

Optimizing algorithm for high-precision imaging stitching systems based on spline surfaces

As optical systems continue to advance, non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) surfaces increasingly being considered in asymmetric optical systems due to their localized control characteristics. However, the representation of NURBS surfaces has complicated the analysis of these systems, leading to a significant computational burden. To address this challenge, we propose an optimizing algorithm for imaging optical systems based on high-precision ray tracing of NURBS surfaces. This method initiates with getting a knot grid as prior information, in conjunction with the Newton-Raphson algorithm, to obtain high-precision numerical solutions for the intersection of rays with a NURBS surface. Building upon this methodology, we introduce an optimization technique that includes shape evaluation to generate an evaluation function specific to NURBS surfaces. This approach is then applied within a rapid optimization process that accounted for the region of ray influence. Under consistent control point grids and sampling ray conditions, we present an off-axis four-mirror system to showcase that our algorithm has achieved a computational efficiency improvement of approximately 14 times compared to the previous method. This high-precision imaging design based on spline surfaces fulfills the need for efficient and accurate algorithms for NURBS surface applications in various imaging systems, providing guidance for practical applications.

Gastrointestinal image stitching based on improved unsupervised algorithm.

Image stitching is a traditional but challenging computer vision task. The goal is to stitch together multiple images with overlapping areas into a single, natural-looking, high-resolution image without ghosts or seams. This article aims to increase the field of view of gastroenteroscopy and reduce the missed detection rate. To this end, an improved depth framework based on unsupervised panoramic image stitching of the gastrointestinal tract is proposed. In addition, preprocessing for aberration correction of monocular endoscope images is introduced, and a C2f module is added to the image reconstruction network to improve the network's ability to extract features. A comprehensive real image data set, GASE-Dataset, is proposed to establish an evaluation benchmark and training learning framework for unsupervised deep gastrointestinal image splicing. Experimental results show that the MSE, RMSE, PSNR, SSIM and RMSE_SW indicators are improved, while the splicing time remains within an acceptable range. Compared with traditional image stitching methods, the performance of this method is enhanced. In addition, improvements are proposed to address the problems of lack of annotated data, insufficient generalization ability and insufficient comprehensive performance in image stitching schemes based on supervised learning. These improvements provide valuable aids in gastrointestinal examination.

Local-Peak Scale-Invariant Feature Transform for Fast and Random Image Stitching.

Image stitching aims to construct a wide field of view with high spatial resolution, which cannot be achieved in a single exposure. Typically, conventional image stitching techniques, other than deep learning, require complex computation and are thus computationally expensive, especially for stitching large raw images. In this study, inspired by the multiscale feature of fluid turbulence, we developed a fast feature point detection algorithm named local-peak scale-invariant feature transform (LP-SIFT), based on the multiscale local peaks and scale-invariant feature transform method. By combining LP-SIFT and RANSAC in image stitching, the stitching speed can be improved by orders compared with the original SIFT method. Benefiting from the adjustable size of the interrogation window, the LP-SIFT algorithm demonstrates comparable or even less stitching time than the other commonly used algorithms, while achieving comparable or even better stitching results. Nine large images (over 2600 × 1600 pixels), arranged randomly without prior knowledge, can be stitched within 158.94 s. The algorithm is highly practical for applications requiring a wide field of view in diverse application scenes, e.g., terrain mapping, biological analysis, and even criminal investigation.

UAV-based field watermelon detection and counting using YOLOv8s with image panorama stitching and overlap partitioning

Accurate watermelon yield estimation is crucial to the agricultural value chain, as it guides the allocation of agricultural resources as well as facilitates inventory and logistics planning. The conventional method of watermelon yield estimation relies heavily on manual labor, which is both time-consuming and labor-intensive. To address this, this work proposes an algorithmic pipeline that utilizes unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) videos for detection and counting of watermelons. This pipeline uses You Only Look Once version 8 s (YOLOv8s) with panorama stitching and overlap partitioning, which facilitates the overall number estimation of watermelons in field. The watermelon detection model, based on YOLOv8s and obtained using transfer learning, achieved a detection accuracy of 99.20 %, demonstrating its potential for application in yield estimation. The panorama stitching and overlap partitioning based detection and counting method uses panoramic images as input and effectively mitigates the duplications compared with the video tracking based detection and counting method. The counting accuracy reached over 96.61 %, proving a promising application for yield estimation. The high accuracy demonstrates the feasibility of applying this method for overall yield estimation in large watermelon fields.

Image stitching algorithm for super-resolution localization microscopy combined with fluorescence noise prior.

Super-resolution panoramic pathological imaging provides a powerful tool for biologists to observe the ultrastructure of samples. Localization data can maintain the essential ultrastructural information of biological samples with a small storage space, and also provides a new opportunity for stitching super-resolution images. However, the existing image stitching methods based on localization data cannot accurately calculate the registration offset of sample regions with no or few structural points and thus lead to registration errors. Here, we proposed a stitching framework called PNanoStitcher. The framework fully utilizes the distribution characteristics of the background fluorescence noise in the stitching region and solves the stitching failure in sample regions with no or few structural points. We verified our method using both simulated and experimental datasets, and compared it with existing stitching methods. PNanoStitcher achieved superior stitching results on biological samples with no structural and few structural regions. The study provides an important driving force for the development of super-resolution digital pathology.

Improved Unsupervised Stitching Algorithm for Multiple Environments SuperUDIS.

Large field-of-view images are increasingly used in various environments today, and image stitching technology can make up for the limited field of view caused by hardware design. However, previous methods are constrained in various environments. In this paper, we propose a method that combines the powerful feature extraction capabilities of the Superpoint algorithm and the exact feature matching capabilities of the Lightglue algorithm with the image fusion algorithm of Unsupervised Deep Image Stitching (UDIS). Our proposed method effectively improves the situation where the linear structure is distorted and the resolution is low in the stitching results of the UDIS algorithm. On this basis, we make up for the shortcomings of the UDIS fusion algorithm. For stitching fractures of UDIS in some complex situations, we optimize the loss function of UDIS. We use a second-order differential Laplacian operator to replace the difference in the horizontal and vertical directions to emphasize the continuity of the structural edges during training. Combined with the above improvements, the Super Unsupervised Deep Image Stitching (SuperUDIS) algorithm is finally formed. SuperUDIS has better performance in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations compared to the UDIS algorithm, with the PSNR index increasing by 0.5 on average and the SSIM index increasing by 0.02 on average. Moreover, the proposed method is more robust in complex environments with large color differences or multi-linear structures.
