Why is this work in the frame?
A frame that forgets how it found something cannot be audited. These are the routes that admitted this work.
Full frame distilled prediction
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)
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
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.

Abstract
Nuclei detection and segmentation in hematoxylin and eosin-stained (H&E) tissue images are important clinical tasks and crucial for a wide range of applications. However, it is a challenging task due to nuclei variances in staining and size, overlapping boundaries, and nuclei clustering. While convolutional neural networks have been extensively used for this task, we explore the potential of Transformer-based networks in combination with large scale pre-training in this domain. Therefore, we introduce a new method for automated instance segmentation of cell nuclei in digitized tissue samples using a deep learning architecture based on Vision Transformer called CellViT. CellViT is trained and evaluated on the PanNuke dataset, which is one of the most challenging nuclei instance segmentation datasets, consisting of nearly 200,000 annotated nuclei into 5 clinically important classes in 19 tissue types. We demonstrate the superiority of large-scale in-domain and out-of-domain pre-trained Vision Transformers by leveraging the recently published Segment Anything Model and a ViT-encoder pre-trained on 104 million histological image patches - achieving state-of-the-art nuclei detection and instance segmentation performance on the PanNuke dataset with a mean panoptic quality of 0.50 and an F1-detection score of 0.83. The code is publicly available at https://github.com/TIO-IKIM/CellViT.
