Researchers have developed ELF (Ensemble Learning of Foundation models), a novel approach that integrates five pretrained pathology foundation models to create unified slide-level representations for precision oncology. Trained on over 53,000 whole-slide images across 20 anatomical sites, ELF utilizes ensemble learning to capture complementary information from individual models. This method aims to improve data efficiency for downstream tasks, particularly in settings with limited data, such as predicting therapeutic response. ELF has demonstrated superior performance compared to its constituent models in disease classification, biomarker detection, and predicting anticancer and immunotherapy responses across various cancer types.
