Record completeness
Claims
We present a unified Deep Learning (DL) framework that jointly performs White Blood Cell (WBC) classification and continuous protein-expression regression from label-free Differential Phase Contrast (DPC) images.
The assumption that bright-field morphology in DPC images contains enough information to accurately infer molecular phenotypes such as protein expression levels.
A hybrid CNN-transformer model with multi-task learning achieves 91.3% WBC classification accuracy and 0.72 Pearson correlation for CD16 expression regression from label-free DPC images, augmented by LLM-generated summaries.
