Intellectual Property India Publishes Patent Application for 'Colorectal Cancer Detection Using Ensemble Deep Learning Models' Filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology

MUMBAI, India, Jan. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541122234 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, on Dec. 4, 2025, for 'colorectal cancer detection using ensemble deep learning models.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Gopichand G; and Mr. Varshith Gandra.

The application for the patent was published on Jan. 2, under issue no. 01/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method (100) for detecting colorectal cancer. The method (100) receives (102) medical image data including histopathological and radiological images of colorectal tissue, preprocesses (104) the data, extracts (106) first features using convolutional neural network models, extracts (108) second features using transformer-based models, combines (110) the features using ensemble learning to generate predictions, determines (112) whether colorectal cancer is present, and generates (114) explainable outputs when cancer is detected. The convolutional neural network models include ResNet-50, EfficientNet-B7, and Inception-v3, while transformer-based models include Vision Transformer and Swin Transformer. Explainable outputs include attention heatmaps using Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping and feature importance scores using SHapley Additive exPlanations."
