Abstract

While object recognition in deep neural networks (DNN) has shown remarkable success in natural images, endoscopic images still cannot be fully analysed using DNNs, since analysing endoscopic images must account for occlusion, light reflection and image blur. UNet based deep convolutional neural networks (DNNs) offer great potential to extract high-level spatial features, thanks to its hierarchical nature with multiple levels of abstraction, which is especially useful for working with multimodal endoscopic images with white light and fluoroscopy in the diagnosis of esophageal disease. However, the currently reported inference time for DNNs is above 200ms, which is unsuitable to integrate into robotic control loops. This work addresses real-time object detection and semantic segmentation in endoscopic devices. We show that endoscopic assistive diagnosis can approach satisfy detection rates with a fast inference time.
