PdEs-based morphology on graphs for cytological slides segmentation and clustering

In this paper, we propose a new graph-based approach to address the problem of cytological computer-aided diagnostic. Such approach uses our previously introduced formalism of PdEs-based morphology and geometric diffusion on graphs. The approach is illustrated through two applications in cytopathology (involving Feulgen and Papanicolaou colorations), with examples of nucleus extraction and classification.
