    Vim-Polyp: Multimodal Colon Polyp Dataset with Video, Histopathology, and Protein Expression
    (Nature Portfolio, 2025-12-03) Dogan, Refika Sultan; Akay, Ebru; Dogan, Serkan; Yilmaz, Bulent
    The dataset in this study includes 202 videos with a total of 422 minutes, reaching Kayseri City Hospital's gastroenterology department as colonoscopy videos and 1903 microscopy images between 2019 and 2021. It includes 399 colonoscopy, microscopy images, and pathological diagnoses of polyps, as well as immunohistochemical staining results for proteins that play an important role in the assessment of cancerous cells, such as staining results for p53 (clone: bp53-11), Ki-67 (clone: 30-9), CD34 (clone: QBend/10), PD-L1 (clone: SP142), BRAF (clone: V600E) and VEGF (clone: SP125). By sharing the data openly, we aim to facilitate benchmarking, exploratory analysis and transfer-learning studies on colorectal polyps and cancer. In combination with external datasets or pretrained models, the resource can help advance data-driven detection and characterisation work. The diverse range of polyps assigned to cancer stages from 201 patients makes this tool valuable for researchers and clinicians in furthering diagnosis and treatment.

    Histopathology Image Classification: Highlighting the Gap Between Manual Analysis and AI Automation
    (Frontiers Media S.A., 2024-01-17) Dogan, Refika Sultan; Yilmaz, Bulent
    The field of histopathological image analysis has evolved significantly with the advent of digital pathology, leading to the development of automated models capable of classifying tissues and structures within diverse pathological images. Artificial intelligence algorithms, such as convolutional neural networks, have shown remarkable capabilities in pathology image analysis tasks, including tumor identification, metastasis detection, and patient prognosis assessment. However, traditional manual analysis methods have generally shown low accuracy in diagnosing colorectal cancer using histopathological images. This study investigates the use of AI in image classification and image analytics using histopathological images using the histogram of oriented gradients method. The study develops an AI-based architecture for image classification using histopathological images, aiming to achieve high performance with less complexity through specific parameters and layers. In this study, we investigate the complicated state of histopathological image classification, explicitly focusing on categorizing nine distinct tissue types. Our research used open-source multi-centered image datasets that included records of 100.000 non-overlapping images from 86 patients for training and 7180 non-overlapping images from 50 patients for testing. The study compares two distinct approaches, training artificial intelligence-based algorithms and manual machine learning models, to automate tissue classification. This research comprises two primary classification tasks: binary classification, distinguishing between normal and tumor tissues, and multi-classification, encompassing nine tissue types, including adipose, background, debris, stroma, lymphocytes, mucus, smooth muscle, normal colon mucosa, and tumor. Our findings show that artificial intelligence-based systems can achieve 0.91 and 0.97 accuracy in binary and multi-class classifications. In comparison, the histogram of directed gradient features and the Random Forest classifier achieved accuracy rates of 0.75 and 0.44 in binary and multi-class classifications, respectively. Our artificial intelligence-based methods are generalizable, allowing them to be integrated into histopathology diagnostics procedures and improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. The CNN model outperforms existing machine learning techniques, demonstrating its potential to improve the precision and effectiveness of histopathology image analysis. This research emphasizes the importance of maintaining data consistency and applying normalization methods during the data preparation stage for analysis. It particularly highlights the potential of artificial intelligence to assess histopathological images.

    Comparison of Deep Learning and Conventional Machine Learning Methods for Classification of Colon Polyp Types
    (Sciendo, 2021-01-01) Dogan, Refika Sultan; Yilmaz, Bulent
    Determination of polyp types requires tissue biopsy during colonoscopy and then histopathological examination of the microscopic images which tremendously time-consuming and costly. The first aim of this study was to design a computer-aided diagnosis system to classify polyp types using colonoscopy images (optical biopsy) without the need for tissue biopsy. For this purpose, two different approaches were designed based on conventional machine learning (ML) and deep learning. Firstly, classification was performed using random forest approach by means of the features obtained from the histogram of gradients descriptor. Secondly, simple convolutional neural networks (CNN) based architecture was built to train with the colonoscopy images containing colon polyps. The performances of these approaches on two (adenoma & serrated vs. hyperplastic) or three (adenoma vs. hyperplastic vs. serrated) category classifications were investigated. Furthermore, the effect of imaging modality on the classification was also examined using white-light and narrow band imaging systems. The performance of these approaches was compared with the results obtained by 3 novice and 4 expert doctors. Two-category classification results showed that conventional ML approach achieved significantly better than the simple CNN based approach did in both narrow band and white-light imaging modalities. The accuracy reached almost 95% for white-light imaging. This performance surpassed the correct classification rate of all 7 doctors. Additionally, the second task (three-category) results indicated that the simple CNN architecture outperformed both conventional ML based approaches and the doctors. This study shows the feasibility of using conventional machine learning or deep learning based approaches in automatic classification of colon types on colonoscopy images.

    A Comprehensive Study on Automatic Non-Informative Frame Detection in Colonoscopy Videos
    (Wiley, 2024-01) Kacmaz, Rukiye Nur; Dogan, Refika Sultan; Yilmaz, Buelent
    Despite today's developing healthcare technology, conventional colonoscopy is still a gold-standard method to detect colon abnormalities. Due to the folded structure of the intestine and visual disturbances caused by artifacts, it can be hard for specialists to detect abnormalities during the procedure. Frames that include artifacts such as specular reflection, improper contrast levels from insufficient or excessive illumination gastric juice, bubbles, or residuals should be detected to increase an accurate diagnosis rate. In this work, both conventional machine learning and transfer learning methods have been used to detect non-informative frames in colonoscopy videos. The conventional machine learning part consists of 5 different types of texture features, which are gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), gray level run length matrix (GLRLM), neighborhood gray-tone difference matrix (NGTDM), focus measure operators (FMOs), and first-order statistics. In addition to these methods, we utilized 8 different transfer learning models: AlexNet, SqueezeNet, GoogleNet, ShuffleNet, ResNet50, ResNet18, NasNetMobile, and MobileNet. The results showed that FMOs and decision tree combination gave the best accuracy and f-measure values with almost 89% and 0.79%, respectively, for the conventional machine learning part. When the transfer learning part is taken into account, AlexNet (99.85%) and SqueezeNet (98.80%) have the highest performance metric results. This study shows the potential of both transfer learning and conventional machine learning algorithms to provide fast and accurate non-informative frame detection to be used during a colonoscopy, which may be considered the initial step in identifying and classifying colon-related diseases automatically to help guide physicians.
