White blood cell recognition for biomarker model using improved convolutional neural network (CNN)

White Blood Cell (WBC) is one of important elements in protecting human’s immunity system. WBC composed of two main elements namely cytoplasm and nucleus, with almost the same in color contrast, and hence make it hard to be detected and analyzed. Manual WBC analysis is less efficient, therefore a Co...
