Researchers have developed K-CLUE, a novel framework for classifying Ki67 cells in breast cancer images without requiring manual annotations or dataset-specific training. The system segments nuclei, uses pretrained visual representations to encode them, and then applies k-means clustering to distinguish between Ki67-positive and Ki67-negative cells. K-CLUE demonstrates strong performance, outperforming existing methods like DeepLIIF and IHCScoreGAN on benchmark datasets, and highlights the importance of accounting for variance structure in pretrained embeddings for accurate cell typing.
