Abstract The accurate identification and classification of pathological images are crucial for early disease detection and treatment. In the process of diagnosis, pathologists typically employ a multi-level approach, observing abnormal cell regions at various magnifications. However, existing models often extract features at a single granularity, neglecting the multi-granularity nature of cells. Therefore, a fuzzy logic guided deep neural network with multi-granularity is proposed in this paper. Firstly, multi-granularity feature extraction is conducted for cell structures at three levels of granularity-coarse, medium and fine, and thus the information in pathological tissue images is fully utilized. Additionally, to address the issue of key information redundancy during multi-granularity feature extraction, fuzzy logic theory is introduced. Multiple fuzzy membership functions are set to describe cell features from different angles. Subsequently, fuzzy operations are employed to fuse into a fuzzy universal feature. A fuzzy logic guided cross attention mechanism is designed to guide the multi-granularity features by the universal fuzzy feature. Finally, an encoder is utilized to propagate the features to all patch tokens, resulting in improved classification accuracy and robustness. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed network achieves high accuracy in the classification of pathological images.
