Many automated techniques have been proposed for evaluating Ki-67 index. In this paper, we introduce an integrated deep learning based approach. We use MobileUnet model for segmentation and classification and connected component based algorithm for the estimation of Ki-67 index in bladder cancer cases. The average F1 score is 0.92 and dice score is 0.96. The mean absolute error in the evaluated Ki-67 index is 2.1. We also explore possible pre-processing steps to generalize the segmentation model to at least one another type of cancer. Histogram matching and re-sizing improve the performance in breast cancer data by 12% in F1 score and 8% in dice score. � 2019 IEEE.Book chapter
