Deep Transfer Learning for Automated Intestinal Bleeding Detection in Capsule Endoscopy Imaging.

Finally, our performance results are compared to other recently developed state-of-the-art methods, and consistent performance advances are demonstrated in terms of performance measures for bleeding image and bleeding zone detection. Relative to the present and established practice of manual inspection and annotation of CE images by a physician, our framework enables considerable annotation time and human labor savings in bleeding detection in CE images, while providing the additional benefits of bleeding zone delineation and increased detection accuracy. Moreover, the overall cost of CE enabled by our framework will also be much lower due to the reduction of manual labor, which can make CE affordable for a larger population.
