Rapid and robust endoscopic content area estimation: A lean GPU-based pipeline and curated benchmark dataset. (arXiv:2210.14771v1 [cs.CV])

Endoscopic content area refers to the informative area enclosed by the dark,
non-informative, border regions present in most endoscopic footage. The
estimation of the content area is a common task in endoscopic image processing
and computer vision pipelines. Despite the apparent simplicity of the problem,
several factors make reliable real-time estimation surprisingly challenging.
The lack of rigorous investigation into the topic combined with the lack of a
common benchmark dataset for this task has been a long-lasting issue in the …
