The experiments were conducted on real-time WCE videos collected from BGS Global Hospital, Bangalore for 4 patients and from Atlas of gastrointestinal endoscopy database [24]. WCE images (94 images with lesions and 41 images without lesions) were being considered from the endoatlas database [24] for the experimental analysis. Various lesions considered were Ampulla, Angiodysplasia, Baretts, Vascular Ecstasis, Candida Esophagitis, Crohns, Cyst, Duodenitis, Edema, Enteritis erosion, Gastrojejunostomy, Ileal Diverticulum, Intursusception, Lymphangiectasia, Lymphoid hyperplasia, Metaplasia, Metastasis, Polyps, Tumour, Ulcer, Vascular lesions and Venous malformation.
