Classification of Cardiovascular Tissues Using LBP Based Descriptors and a Cascade SVM

Currently, the recognition of normal tissues and organs must be carried out by histology experts, and automatic systems that can recognise them do not exist. An automatic classification of the tissues in histological images of the cardiovascular system may be helpful for educational purposes  [1]. It may be deployed on an on-line learning platform where students could access it from different locations in order to analyse tissues and promote self-learning [2]. These kind of platforms require lower social and economic investment in obtaining well-trained professionals.
