Multi-organ squamous cell carcinoma classification using feature interpretation technique for explainability
Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of cancer that occurs in many organs of the human body. To detect carcinoma, pathologists observe tissue samples at multiple magnifications, which is time-consuming and prone to inter- or intra-observer variability. The key challenge for automation of squamous cell carcinoma diagnosis is to extract the features at low (100x) magnification and explain the decision-making process to healthcare professionals. The existing literature used either machine learning or deep learning models to detect squamous cell carcinoma of specific organs. In this work, we report on the implementation of an explainable diagnostic aid system for squamous cell carcinoma of any organ and present a comparative analysis with state-of-the-art models. A classifier with an ensemble feature selection technique is developed to provide an automatic diagnostic aid for distinguishing between squamous cell carcinoma positive and negative cases based on histopathological images. Moreover, explainable AI techniques such as ELI5, LIME and SHAP are introduced to machine learning model which provides feature interpretability of prediction made by the classifier. The results show that the machine learning model achieved an accuracy of 93.43% and 96.66% on public and multi-centric private datasets, respectively. The proposed CatBoost classifier achieved remarkable performance in diagnosing multi-organ squamous cell carcinoma from low magnification histopathological images, even when various illumination variations were introduced.
期刊介绍:
Biocybernetics and Biomedical Engineering is a quarterly journal, founded in 1981, devoted to publishing the results of original, innovative and creative research investigations in the field of Biocybernetics and biomedical engineering, which bridges mathematical, physical, chemical and engineering methods and technology to analyse physiological processes in living organisms as well as to develop methods, devices and systems used in biology and medicine, mainly in medical diagnosis, monitoring systems and therapy. The Journal''s mission is to advance scientific discovery into new or improved standards of care, and promotion a wide-ranging exchange between science and its application to humans.
