WM-DOVA maps for accurate polyp highlighting in colonoscopy: Validation vs. saliency maps from physicians
We present WM-DOVA energy maps highlighting image areas likely to contain a polyp. We present the first available database with clinical metadata associated. WM-DOVA maps outperform other localization methods in two different databases. WM-DOVA performs similar to clinicians when searching for polyps in full sequences. Our maps outperform other saliency models, best candidates for clinical practice.
