Summary

Loki-OT used region-level tissue estimates as soft guidance when visually similar cells confused a cell classifier.

On an independent breast-cancer cohort, the method reduced patient-level error and improved F1 in epithelium-rich mimicry regions using 278 weak region estimates. The work is a computational pathology benchmark, not a clinical diagnostic validation.

Why it matters
