    Pedro Neto is a MSc in Computer Science from the Aalto University, Finland and a PhD candidate at FEUP. Simultaneously, he works as a research assistant at Centre of Telecommunication and Multimedia at INESC TEC, developing, as part of the CADPath project, computer-aided diagnosis systems for colorectal and cervical cancers. Besides his work on the project, Pedro is also researching biometric systems, for instance face recognition or presentation attack detection, as well as the interpretability and explainability of artificial intelligence models.

    Abstract
    Colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis is based on samples obtained from biopsies, assessed in pathology laboratories. Due to population growth and ageing, as well as better screening programs, the CRC incidence rate has been increasing, leading to a higher workload for pathologists. In this sense, the application of AI for automatic CRC diagnosis, particularly on whole-slide images (WSI), is of utmost relevance, in order to assist professionals in case triage and case review. In this work, we propose an interpretable semi-supervised approach to detect lesions in colorectal biopsies with high sensitivity, based on multiple-instance learning and feature aggregation methods. The model was developed on an extended version of the recent, publicly available CRC dataset (the CRC+ dataset with 4433 WSI), using 3424 slides for training and 1009 slides for evaluation. The proposed method attained 90.19% classification ACC, 98.8% sensitivity, 85.7% specificity, and a quadratic weighted kappa of 0.888 at slide-based evaluation. Its generalisation capabilities are also studied on two publicly available external datasets.
