In this article, we propose an approach to learn the characteristics of colonic mucosal surface structures, the so called pit patterns, commonly observed during high-magnification colonoscopy. Since the discrimination of the pit pattern types usually requires an experienced physician, an interesting question is whether we can automatically find a collection of images which most typically show a particular pit pattern characteristic. This is of considerable practical interest, since it is imperative for gastroenterological training to have a representative image set for the textbook descriptions of the pit patterns. Our approach exploits recent research on semantic image retrieval and annotation. This facilitates to learn a semantic space for the pit pattern concepts which eventually leads to a very natural formulation of our task. |
