Methods are disclosed that include: (a) applying a first stain to a first sample having a plurality of regions, where the first stain selectively binds to only a first subset of the regions of the first sample; (b) applying a second stain to the first sample, where the second stain binds to a second set of regions of the first sample; (c) obtaining an image of the first sample, and analyzing the image to obtain a first component image corresponding substantially only to spectral contributions from the first stain, and a second component image corresponding substantially only to spectral contributions from the second stain; and (d) training a classifier to identify regions of a second sample based on information derived from the first and second component images, the identified regions corresponding to the first subset of regions of the first sample.
