Abstract
In the field of medical endoscopy more and more surgeons are changing over to record and store videos of their endoscopic procedures, such as surgeries and examinations, in long-term video archives. In order to support surgeons in accessing these endoscopic video archives in a contentbased way, we propose a simple yet effective signature-based approach: the Signature Matching Distance based on adaptivebinning feature signatures. The proposed distance-based similarity model facilitates an adaptive representation of the visual properties of endoscopic images and allows for matching these properties efficiently. We conduct an extensive performance analysis with respect to the task of linking specific endoscopic images with video segments and show the high efficacy of our approach. We are able to link more than 88% of the endoscopic images to their corresponding correct video segments, which improves the current state of the art by one order of magnitude.
