Brief Bio
Aymeric Histace is a Full Professor with ETIS lab (ENSEA, University of Cergy-Pontoise, CNRS). He currently works at the DEP (Electronics and Physics Department) of École Nationale Supérieure de l'Electronique et de ses Applications (ENSEA). He is the head of the CELL team of ETIS lab, Director of the Research Dpt of ENSEA. His main research topics are Computer Vision, Signal and Image Processing in interaction with Natural Science, Engineering and Medicine, and Information Science. The current flagship projects he is working on are "Smart Videocolonoscopy" and "CAD-CAP" (Computer Aided Diagonis for CAPsule endoscopy). He has led more than 10 projects (as Principal Investigator) related to Computer Vision for Computer-Aided-Diagnosis during the last 10 years.

Brief Bio
Jorge Bernal is an associated researcher at Computer Vision Center at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and at ETIS laboratory of École Nationale Supérieure de l'Electronique et de ses Applications (ENSEA). He holds a PhD degree in Computer Science from Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. He is the head of Image Sequence Evaluation laboratory at Computer Vision Center (CVC). His main research topic is the development of intelligent systems for videocolonoscopy and machine vision. The current flagship projects he is working on are “iVENDIS” (as co-Principal Investigator) and “HISINVIA” projects funded by Spanish government and "Smart Videocolonoscopy” project funded by SATT. His recent works work on videocolonoscopy image analysis have been published recently in Endoscopy (2018), International Journal of Computer Assisted Radiology (2018), Machine Vision and Applications (2017) and IEEE TMI (2017) journals. He has been part in 8 different research and technological transfer projects related to endoscopy image processing in the last 10 years (2 as Principal Investigator) and he has been co-chair of GIANA subchallenge at MICCAI since 2015.

SCOPE
Early and accurate diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases is key to increase patient survival chances. An efficient screening is key to locate the precursor lesions. Videocolonoscopy and wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) are the gold standard tools for colon and intestinal tract screening, respectively. These tools still present some drawbacks such as lesion miss-rate, lack of in-vivo diagnosis capabilities or perforation risk. CAD systems can play a key role to assist clinicians in the different stages of the exploration. The objective of Gastrointestinal Image ANAlysis (GIANA) Workshop is to gather researchers working in this topic and to discuss with them the most recent state-of-the-art approaches, including those clinical aspects that are needed to efficiently deploy these systems in the exploration room.
The main topics of the workshop are the following: • lesion detection and localization (colonoscopy videos and wireless capsule endoscopy images) • lesion classification (colonoscopy images, wireless capsule endoscopy images) • anatomical structures segmentation (polyps, blood vessels, inflammatory structures, luminal region) • image classification (image quality, presence of bleeding) • instrument detection, localization and segmentation • quality assessment • application of new imaging modalities (NBI, FICE, iSCAN)
