Abstract

Abstract : This paper addresses the problem of automatically locating the boundary between the stomach and the small intestine (the pylorus) in wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) video. For efficient image segmentation, the color-saliency region detection (CSD) method is developed for obtaining the potentially valid region of the frame (VROF). To improve the accuracy of locating the pylorus, we design the Monitor-Judge model. On the one hand, the color-texture fusion feature of visual perception (CTVP) is constructed by grey level cooccurrence matrix (GLCM) feature from the maximum moments of the phase congruency covariance and hue-saturation histogram feature in HSI color space. On the other hand, support vector machine (SVM) classifier with the CTVP feature is utilized to locate the pylorus. The experimental results on 30 real WCE videos demonstrate that the proposed location method outperforms the related valuable techniques.
