Abstract

Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is a device that can move through human body and capture the small bowel entirely. Thus, it is presented as an excellent diagnostic tool for evaluation of gastrointestinal diseases compared with traditional endoscopies. However, the diagnosis by the physicians is tedious since it requires reviewing the video extracted from the capsule and analysing all of its frames. This tedious task has fuelled the efforts of researchers to provide automated diagnostic techniques for WCE frameworks to detect symptoms of gastrointestinal illness. In this paper, a new computer-aided diagnosis method for abnormalities detection in WCE images is proposed. After a preprocessing step, we extract from these images the descriptor we feed to a kernel extreme learning machine to perform the classification process. The descriptor used in this work is a combination between the histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) that were extracted using the hue component of the HSV colour space, and a modified rotation-invariant local binary pattern. The proposed approach has been tested on different datasets, and the results obtained are satisfactory when compared to the state-of-the-art works.
