Patent ID: 11011275

Abstract:
A system and method of diagnosing gastrointestinal neoplasm or pathologies in an endoscopy system including an endoscopy system display for displaying an image enhanced endoscopy (IEE) image. The method includes randomly generating training image samples with or without cancer region(s) by an adversarial network (AN) including collecting endoscopic training images (T1) and automatically generating a realistic IEE image as a new training image sample (T2) using a generator network in the AN from a generated segmentation map; using a prediction network (L1PN) to learn a level 1 prediction result being a cancerous probability of an IEE image from the collected T1 and T2; using a prediction network (L2PN) to learn a level 2 prediction result being detected cancerous region(s) of an IEE image; and predicting the level 1 result and the level 2 result for an IEE image using the L1PN and the L2PN and without using the AN.
