Abstract

BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal (GI) infections are quite common today around the world. Colonoscopy or wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) are noninvasive methods for examining the whole GI tract for abnormalities. Nevertheless, it requires a great deal of time and effort for doctors to visualize a large number of images, and diagnosis is prone to human error. As a result, developing automated artificial intelligence (AI) based GI disease diagnosis methods is a crucial and emerging research area. AI-based prediction models may lead to improvements in the early diagnosis of gastrointestinal disorders, assessing severity, and healthcare systems for the benefit of patients as well as clinicians. The focus of this research is on the early diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases using a convolution neural network (CNN) to enhance diagnosis accuracy.
