SegTME-UNI2: A Foundation Model-Based Framework for Generalisable Multiclass Cell Segmentation and LLM-Driven Tumour Microenvironment Characterisation in Histopathology
Characterising the TME from routine H&E-stained histology images requires simultaneous cell segmentation, biological feature extraction, and interpretable clinical reporting. We present SegTME-UNI2, a unified framework addressing all three requirements end-to-end: a segmentation backbone that converts raw H\&E patches into per-nucleus class labels, a structured feature-extraction pipeline that turns those labels into quantitative TME descriptors, and a language-model narrative generator that turns those descriptors into clinician-readable text. At its core is UNI2-UperHoVer, a dual-head multiscale segmentation model that pairs UNI2 with two parallel UperNet decoders: one for six-class sem...
