Additional Information¶
Please take the following limitations in to account when submitting data to this algorithm: A custom normalization algorithm is trained on the input data, though this cannot overcome all stain and scanner differences. We limit the overall processing time of each job by setting an upper bound on the number of epochs the normalization algorithm is trained. Due to the limited processing time, in some cases the normalization technique can fail. All input images should contain magnification levels that correspond to a 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0μm pixel spacing (± 0.05). The algorithm will stop if any of the input images miss one or more of these levels.
