研究目的
To implement and evaluate the Faster R-CNN model for polyp detection in endoscopic videos to facilitate early diagnosis and reduce missed detections in clinical practice.
研究成果
Faster R-CNN demonstrates high detection performance for polyps in endoscopic videos, achieving competitive results in precision and other metrics compared to state-of-the-art methods. It shows robustness to occlusions and illumination changes but has limitations in handling small polyps and false positives. The approach is efficient for clinical use, with potential to reduce missed detections, though further investigation is needed to address localization errors.
研究不足
The detector may miss very small polyps and mistake specular highlights or other noises for polyps, leading to high false positive rates in localization. Training from scratch with random initialization underperforms compared to fine-tuning, and the study did not validate on private datasets like ASU-Mayo Clinic due to unavailability, potentially limiting generalizability.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses the Faster R-CNN framework with VGG16 as the backbone for feature extraction, chosen for its deep feature extraction capabilities and balance between complexity and runtime. The methodology involves training and testing on endoscopic video datasets to detect and localize polyps.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Public datasets are used, including CVC-Clinic2015 (612 frames), CVC-Clinic2017 (11954 frames for training, 18733 for testing), CVC-ColonDB (300 frames), and CVC-EndoSceneStill (912 frames). Frames are resized to 384x288 pixels, and simple transformations like horizontal flipping are applied without data augmentation.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A K40c GPU is used for training and testing the Faster R-CNN model. Software includes implementations of Faster R-CNN and VGG16, with weights initialized from ImageNet.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The Faster R-CNN architecture involves a Regional Proposal Network (RPN) and Head network for generating proposals and classifications. Training uses approximately joint optimization (AJO) with a mini-batch size of 128, SGD optimizer, and convergence after 70000 iterations. Testing involves generating 1 to 300 proposals per frame, with non-maximum suppression and confidence thresholds set for evaluation.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
Performance metrics include True Positive (TP), False Positive (FP), True Negative (TN), False Negative (FN), Precision, Recall, Accuracy, F1-score, F2-score, Reaction Time (RT), and Mean Distance (MD) for localization. Results are compared with state-of-the-art methods using these metrics.
