Estimating Cell Count and Distribution in Labeled Histological Samples Using Incremental Cell Search

Figure 4

ICS progress. The 3 frames above show how ICS searches through an image over time. The algorithm starts from the center of the image where the first search seed was placed (first frame). For each frame, orange regions (more visible in the second and third frames) represent regions with positive cell locations, and white regions represent regions where no cells were found. The regions covered by the algorithm are enclosed by a thin red boundary, and the dark regions have not yet been explored by the algorithm.
