The \u201cunidentified\u201d category is a result of the specific nature of the cytotechnologist\u2019s work. The spectrum of cell condition is continuous. Therefore, under certain conditions, the cytotechnologist cannot make a definitive decision. Such cells are still marked in the dataset to enable the segmentation of all cells in the image.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image container-narrow\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"944\" src=\"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-26-1024x944.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1049\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In conclusion, the dataset provides:<br>\u2013 Realistic WSI fragments of routine smears<br>\u2013 Annotations consistent with a standard reporting system<br>\u2013 Suitable for segmentation, classification, and detection<br>\u2013 An advanced benchmark<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":961,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-subpage.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_only_polish":false,"footnotes":""},"folder":[29],"class_list":["post-1039","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1039"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1039\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4085,"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1039\/revisions\/4085"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/961"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"folder","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ibib.waw.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/folder?post=1039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
