Inquiry about the Patch Extraction Code for the BCNB Dataset in the SlideChat Paper #23
Description
Dear Authors,
I hope this email finds you well. I am an avid reader of your excellent paper, "SlideChat: A Large Vision-Language Assistant for Whole-Slide Pathology Image Understanding," and I am deeply impressed by your work.
To facilitate the reproduction of your experiments and further research, I have successfully obtained the BCNB dataset from its official website: https://bupt-ai-cz.github.io/BCNB/. As described in your paper, the preprocessing step involves segmenting WSIs into non-overlapping 224×224 patches at 20x magnification while excluding background regions.
Could you kindly share the code or script used for this patch extraction process? This detail would be immensely helpful for my understanding and implementation.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.
