Researchers have developed ResTopoMIL, a novel approach to address "spatial blindness" in whole-slide multiple instance learning for image analysis. This method separates the learning of tissue composition from spatial organization, preventing the model from relying solely on composition and improving its ability to utilize spatial information. By freezing a composition predictor before training a graph residual, ResTopoMIL demonstrated significant improvements in classification and survival benchmarks, achieving a 0.987 AUC on a controlled spatial task.
