A complete benchmark for polyp detection, segmentation and classification in colonoscopy images by Yael Tudela, Mireia Majó, Neil de la Fuente, Adrian Galdran, Adrian Krenzer, Frank Puppe, Amine Yamlahi, Thuy Nuong Tran, Bogdan J. Matuszewski, Kerr Fitzgerald, Cheng Bian, Junwen Pan, Shijle Liu, Gloria Fernández-Esparrach, Aymeric Histace, Jorge Bernal

“…Early detection and diagnosis of its precursor lesion, the polyp, is key to reduce its mortality and to improve procedure efficiency. During the last two decades, several computational methods have been proposed to assist clinicians in detection, segmentation and classification tasks but the lack of a common public validation framework makes it difficult to determine which of them is ready to be deployed in the exploration room.MethodsThis study presents a complete validation framework and we compare several methodologies for each of the polyp characterization tasks.ResultsResults show that the majority of the approaches are able to provide good performance for the detection and segmentation task, but that there is room for improvement regarding polyp classification.DiscussionWhile studied show promising results in the assistance of polyp detection and segmentation tasks, further research should be done in classification task to obtain reliable results to assist the clinicians during the procedure. …”
