A system for quality assessment of optical colonoscopy images includes an input device configured to acquire a series of images during an optical colonoscopy. A computing device is coupled in communication with the input device and configured to acquire from the input device an input image from the series of images captured during the optical colonoscopy; form a cell grid including a plurality of cells on the input image; perform an image transformation onto the input image with each cell of the plurality of cells within the cell grid; reconstruct each cell to form a reconstructed image; compute a difference image of a sum of a plurality of differences between the input image and the reconstructed image; compute a histogram of the difference image; and apply a probabilistic classifier to the histogram to calculate an informativeness score for the input image.
