Abstract

With a continuously growing availability of annotated datasets of mitotic figures in histology images, finding the best way to optimally use with this unprecedented amount of data to optimally train deep learning models has become a new challenge. Here, we build upon previously proposed approaches with a focus on efficient sampling of training data inspired by boosting techniques and present our candidate solutions for the two tracks of the MIDOG 2025 challenge.
