Lessons from a breast cell annotation competition series for school pupils.

ABSTRACT: Due to COVID-19 outbreaks, most school pupils have had to be home-schooled for long periods of time. Two editions of a web-based competition "Beat the Pathologists" for school age participants in the UK ran to fill up pupils' spare time after home-schooling and evaluate their ability on contributing to AI annotation. The two editions asked the participants to annotate different types of cells on Ki67 stained breast cancer images. The Main competition was at four levels with different level of complexity. We obtained annotations of four kinds of cells entered by school pupils and ground truth from expert pathologists. In this paper, we analyse school pupils' performance on differentiating different kinds of cells and compare their performance with two neural networks (AlexNet and VGG16). It
