Abstract
Mechanisms for simultaneously monitoring colonoscopic video quality and detecting polyps in colonoscopy are provided. In some embodiments, the mechanisms can include a quality monitoring system that uses a first trained classifier to monitor image frames from a colonoscopic video to determine which image frames are informative frames and which image frames are non-informative frames. The informative image frames can be passed to an automatic polyp detection system that uses a second trained classifier to localize and identify whether a polyp or any other suitable object is present in one or more of the informative image frames.
