Abstract
This paper presents the Support System for auto-Pathological Diagnosis (P-SSD) to support pathologists and researchers of auto-pathological diagnosis. P-SSD has two main contributions. First, P-SSD detects cancer area with machine learning methods, and then shows cancer areas to pathologists. The pathologists can make diagnosis with the detected result, which reduce the burden on pathologists. Second, P-SSD is an open software platform for pathological image too. The platform offers some basic functionalities to load and display pathological images, and implement the image-processing methods though plugins. It helps researchers to apply feature calculation and machine leaning techniques to the pathological images effortlessly. In conclusion, P-SSD is the software with potential applications in both of pathological diagnosis and research.
