Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReal-Time Endoscopic Image Semantic Segmentation for Efficient Polyp IdentificationM. Al-AsliThe advancement of endoscopic procedures has significantly enhanced diagnostic capabilities in polyp identification and removal, which is critical for colorectal cancer prevention. However, the success of these procedures hinges on the accuracy and speed of real-time image analysis. Traditional image processing methods often fail to provide timely and precise segmentation of endoscopic images. This paper presents the implementation of endoscopic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 10 Dec 2025 · 2,397 accessesView PDFCite
