Abstract
The aim of this study is to develop a method for visual segmentation of various objects of endoscopic images based on a collection of endoscopic images. The method was developed on the basis of a collection of images obtained by ENVD LLC on a contractual basis with medical organizations of the Republic of Bashkortostan, Russia. The collection consists of 70 endoscopic images recording clinical cases diagnosed in accordance with the Paris Tumor Classification of Gastrointestinal Diseases. A number of machine vision operations were carried out, including image preprocessing, image sampling, and subsequent clustering for the purpose of image segmentation. Results: A technique for the analysis of endoscopic images was developed, which makes it possible to obtain the contours of objects of interest to a specialist performing endoscopy. Conclusion. The developed solution allows to speed up and improve the procedure for marking endoscopic images, which in turn prepares a platform for further processing of endoscopic images, for example, nosological classification of neoplasms.
