Abstract
Computational techniques are applied to video images of polyps to extract features and patterns from different perspectives of a polyp. The extracted features and patterns are synthesized using registration techniques to remove artifacts and noise, thereby generating improved images for the polyp. The generated images of each polyp can be used for training and testing purposes, where a machine learning system separates two types of polyps.
