Background:

The Thinprep cytologic test (TCT) is widely used for cervical cancer screening but relies on manual interpretation, leading to high workload and variable accuracy.
Automatic pathological diagnosis systems aim to improve efficiency and accuracy, with cervical cell classification being a critical component.
Deep neural networks require substantial labeled data for training, which is scarce and costly to obtain for cervical cell classification due to expert annotation needs.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a semi-supervised learning method for accurate cervical cell classification using limited labeled data.
To address the challenge of insufficient labeled data in automated cervical cancer diagnosis systems.
To improve the accuracy and efficiency of cervical cell classification in intelligent diagnostic systems.

Main Methods:

A semi-supervised learning approach incorporating manual features and a voting mechanism for data expansion.
Utilizing a clarity function to filter high-quality cervical cell images for annotation.
Annotating a small subset of high-quality images and employing a voting mechanism to balance training data.

Main Results:

The proposed method achieved a high accuracy of 91.94% for cervical cell classification.
Demonstrated the effectiveness of semi-supervised learning with manual features and voting for data expansion.
Successfully addressed the challenge of limited labeled data in training deep neural network models.

Conclusions:

The developed method offers a viable solution for accurate cervical cell classification with minimal labeled data.
This approach can significantly reduce the reliance on extensive manual annotation, lowering costs and improving scalability.
The findings contribute to the advancement of intelligent cervical cancer diagnosis systems, enhancing diagnostic capabilities.
