A Deep-Learning Approach for Identifying and Classifying Digestive Diseases

Abstract

The digestive tract, often known as the gastrointestinal (GI) tract or the gastrointestinal system, is affected by digestive ailments. The stomach, large and small intestines, liver, pancreas and gallbladder are all components of the digestive tract. A digestive disease is any illness that affects the digestive system. Serious to moderate conditions can exist. Heartburn, cancer, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and lactose intolerance are only a few of the frequent issues. The digestive system may be treated with many different surgical treatments. Laparoscopy, open surgery and endoscopy are a few examples of these techniques. This paper proposes transfer-learning models with different pre-trained models to identify and classify digestive diseases. The proposed systems showed an increase in metrics, such as the accuracy, precision and recall, when compared with other state-of-the-art methods, and EfficientNetB0 achieved the best performance results of 98.01% accuracy, 98% precision and 98% recall.
