AI helps provide guidance
“Aiforia seemed like the most approachable, easy-to-use solution,” Liesbeth explains why she applied to aiForward. Using Aiforia Create, Liesbeth has already trained her own deep learning AI model to calculate PD-L1 in a speedy and consistent manner. “We annotated everything, about 60 slides, in just a few weeks and it was actually quite easy. Easier than I expected it to be and I expected it to take much longer,” she describes of the training process.
“Annotation Assistant really saves you a lot of time. It also brings up the more difficult areas that I myself would not have realized to annotate. It really made the algorithm better,” she adds, having used Aiforia’s new active learning tool to speed up her AI model creation.
Analysis under way
Training is done and now with the PD-L1 detecting AI model in her hands Liesbeth has already started the analysis with the support of the pulmonary pathologists in validating the results. “The Aiforia AI really does something that we could not do otherwise, and the results are looking good.”
Expecting to finish her aiForward project soon, this researcher transformed from not knowing anything about AI to creating her own deep learning AI model in just a matter of weeks.
