Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The peri-tumoural stroma has been explored as a useful source of prognostic information in colorectal cancer. Using Mueller matrix (MM) polarized light microscopy for quantification of unstained histology slides, the current study assesses the prognostic potential of polarimetric characteristics of peri-tumoural collagenous stroma architecture in 38 human stage III colorectal cancer (CRC) patient samples. Specifically, Mueller matrix transformation and polar decomposition parameters were tested for association with 5-year patient local recurrence outcomes. The results show that some of these polarimetric parameters were significantly different (p value < 0.05) for the recurrence versus the no-recurrence patient cohorts (Mann-Whitney U test). MM parameters may thus be prognostically valuable towards improving clinical management/treatment stratification in CRC patients.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
