Accurate segmentation of lung cancer in pathology slides is a critical step in improving patient care. We proposed the ACDC@LungHP (Automatic Cancer Detection and Classification in Whole-slide Lung Histopathology) challenge for evaluating different computer-aided diagnosis (CADs) methods on the automatic diagnosis of lung cancer. The ACDC@LungHP 2019 focused on segmentation (pixel-wise detection) of cancer tissue in whole slide imaging (WSI), using an annotated dataset of 150 training images and 50 test images from 200 patients. This paper reviews this challenge and summarizes the top 10 submitted methods for lung cancer segmentation. All methods were evaluated using the false positive rate, false negative rate, and DICE coefficient (DC). The DC ranged from 0.7354$\pm$0.1149 to 0.8372$\pm$0.0858. The DC of the best method was close to the inter-observer agreement (0.8398$\pm$0.0890). All methods were based on deep learning and categorized into two groups: multi-model method and single model method. In general, multi-model methods were significantly better ($\textit{p}$<$0.01$) than single model methods, with mean DC of 0.7966 and 0.7544, respectively. Deep learning based methods could potentially help pathologists find suspicious regions for further analysis of lung cancer in WSI.
Air pollution poses a serious threat to human health as well as economic development around the world. To meet the increasing demand for accurate predictions for air pollutions, we proposed a Deep Inferential Spatial-Temporal Network to deal with the complicated non-linear spatial and temporal correlations. We forecast three air pollutants (i.e., PM2.5, PM10 and O3) of monitoring stations over the next 48 hours, using a hybrid deep learning model consists of inferential predictor (inference for regions without air pollution readings), spatial predictor (capturing spatial correlations using CNN) and temporal predictor (capturing temporal relationship using sequence-to-sequence model with simplified attention mechanism). Our proposed model considers historical air pollution records and historical meteorological data. We evaluate our model on a large-scale dataset containing air pollution records of 35 monitoring stations and grid meteorological data in Beijing, China. Our model outperforms other state-of-art methods in terms of SMAPE and RMSE.
