Thesis Title: Image Analysis for Computer-Aided Histopathology

The main goal of this dissertation is to understand and address the challenges associated with the development of image analysis techniques for the computer-aided interpretation of high-resolution histopathology imagery. We aim to design algorithms for key image analysis tasks such as robust and adaptive segmentation of cytological components for higher level processing, construction of biologically relevant and computationally tractable features and their mathematical representations in order to differentiate distinct tissue sub-types, detection of prognostically significant tissue structures, and spatial alignment of tissue sections prepared with different stains in order to incorporate complementary in-formation.
