Abstract(in English) Induced pluripotent stem(iPS) cells, which have the ability to differentiate into any other cell type in the body, are already revolutionizing medical therapy. Since a large number of undifferentiated human iPS cells must be prepared for use, the development of an automated culture system for iPS cells is considered to be crucial. Among the multiple procedures involve in the culture system, detection of good/bad cells and the subsequent elimination of bad cells appears to be one of the most important parts. In this paper we propose a method for detection of good/bad colonies of iPS cells by semantic segmentation. Instead of assigning a single class label to the whole patch, we divide local patches into sub-areas and calculate probability mass function(pmf) for each sub-area to preserve structural information, then learning is carried out by regression rather than classification. Experimental result on two dataset show that a CNN using the proposed method outperforms a classification-based CNN.
