Polyps are very common abnormalities in human gastrointestinal regions. Their early diagnosis may help in reducing the risk of colorectal cancer. Vision-based computer-aided diagnostic systems automatically identify polyp regions to assist surgeons in their removal. Due to their varying shape, color, size, texture, and unclear boundaries, polyp segmentation in images is a challenging problem. Existing deep learning segmentation models mostly rely on convolutional neural networks that have certain limitations in learning the diversity in visual patterns at different spatial locations. Further, they fail to capture inter-feature dependencies. Vision transformer models have also been deployed for polyp segmentation due to their powerful global feature extraction capabilities. But they too are supplemented by convolution layers for learning contextual local information. In the present paper, a polyp segmentation model CoInNet is proposed with a novel feature extraction mechanism that leverages the strengths of convolution and involution operations and learns to highlight polyp regions in images by considering the relationship between different feature maps through a statistical feature attention unit. To further aid the network in learning polyp boundaries, an anomaly boundary approximation module is introduced that uses recursively fed feature fusion to refine segmentation results. It is indeed remarkable that even tiny-sized polyps with only 0.01% of an image area can be precisely segmented by CoInNet. It is crucial for clinical applications, as small polyps can be easily overlooked even in the manual examination due to the voluminous size of wireless capsule endoscopy videos. CoInNet outperforms thirteen state-of-the-art methods on five benchmark polyp segmentation datasets.
