This paper presents a lightweight and efficient framework for rapid and accurate detection of colonic polyps, which play an important role in the early diagnosis and prevention of colon cancer. We propose a method to filter out noisy data using the LOF algorithm and detect colonic polyps using the YOLO-v11n deep learning model. We conducted experiments using five public datasets, including CVC-ColonDB, CVC-ClinicDB, Kvasir-SEG, ETIS, and EndoScene, and improved the robustness and generalization performance of the model through 5-fold cross-validation and LOF-based outlier removal. As a result, we achieved high accuracy (precision 95.83%, recall 91.85%, F1-score 93.48%, mAP@0.5 96.48%, mAP@0.5 :0.95 77.75%), showing improved accuracy and efficiency than the existing YOLO-based method.
Takeaways, Limitations
