Defocus-aware Dirichlet particle filter for stable endoscopic video frame recognition

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose a method for smoothing recognition results of NBI endoscopic video frames.

• It is robust to defocused frames by using defocus information extracted from frames.

• We develop a particle filter with the Dirichlet distribution.

• The Rayleigh distribution is used for the defocus information and the likelihood.

• Experimental results are shown with synthetic and real NBI endoscopic videos.
