While automated segmentation methods can help detect polyps and consequently improve their surgical removal, the clinical usability of these methods requires a trade-off between accuracy and speed. In this work, we exploit the traditional U-Net methods and compare different segmentation-loss functions. Our results demonstrate that IoU loss results in an improved segmentation performance (nearly 3% improvement on Dice) for real-time polyp segmentation.","url_abs":"https://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2882/","url_pdf":"https://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2882/paper30.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"real-time-polyp-segmentation-using-u-net-with","repo_url":"https://github.com/georgebatch/kvasir-seg","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"segmentation","task_name":"Segmentation"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
