HEST (NeurIPS 2024)

Open-source bioimage analysis platform for digital pathology and research, featuring AI-powered cell detection, tissue classification, and whole-slide image analysis with extensible scripting and plugin architecture (1.3K+ stars, actively maintained)

General-purpose pathology foundation model pretrained on 100K+ diagnostic whole-slide images across 20 major tissue types, achieving state-of-the-art transfer learning across 30+ clinical tasks and serving as a universal feature extractor for digital pathology (Mahmood Lab, 722+ stars)

Toolkit for large-scale whole-slide image processing supporting 22+ patch encoders (UNI, CONCH, Virchow, H-Optimus-0, etc.), slide encoders (TITAN, GigaPath, PRISM, CHIEF, Madeleine, Feather), tissue segmentation, and multi-GPU inference with end-to-end pipeline and smart resume for standardized deployment of computational pathology foundation models (Mahmood Lab, Harvard Medical School, 553+ stars)

Vision-language pathology foundation model using contrastive learning on histopathology image-text pairs, enabling zero-shot classification, slide-level retrieval, and multimodal reasoning across diverse cancer types (Mahmood Lab, 494+ stars)

Multimodal whole-slide pathology foundation model jointly pretrained on H&E histology and diagnostic text reports, enabling zero-shot cancer subtyping, biomarker prediction, and multimodal reasoning across diverse cancer types (Mahmood Lab, 341+ stars)

Lightweight supervised slide foundation model with 0.9M parameters pretrained on 24K whole-slide images for pan-cancer morphological classification, achieving competitive performance with much larger self-supervised models (TITAN, GigaPath) while enabling finetuning on consumer-grade GPUs; includes standardized MIL implementations and benchmarking across 15+ classification tasks (Mahmood Lab, Harvard Medical School, 153+ stars)
