  • Publication number: 20240029243
    Abstract: A referenceless image evaluation method for a capsule endoscope, an electronic device, and a medium. The method comprises: acquiring image quality evaluation scores and image content evaluation scores corresponding to respective original images; and determining, according to weights of the image content evaluation scores and weights of the image quality evaluation scores, a comprehensive score for each image currently being evaluated. The referenceless image evaluation method for a capsule endoscope employs various evaluation models to evaluate the image quality and content of a number of original images taken in the same detection region. The results of these evaluations are then combined to produce comprehensive scores for the numerous original images of the same region. Through the comprehensive scores, high-quality images can be quickly screened out, and thus the screening of the original images can be accelerated and the identification accuracy be improved.
