Fig. 7

Schematic representation of image segmentation or object detection results as raster or vector graphics, respectively, together with semantic metadata (top) and screenshots of the Slim user interface displaying the data (bottom). Shown are the binary segmentation mask (left) as well as the centroids of detected objects (right), which were derived from slide microscopy images from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) project. The raster graphic data are represented as a two-dimensional pixel matrix and vector graphic data are represented as spatial coordinates in the three-dimensional slide coordinate system in millimeter units. The slide coordinate system serves as a frame of reference and graphic data may need to be transformed and spatially aligned for overlay onto the source images. The affine transformation is parametrized using appropriate DICOM metadata.
