Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterized by continuous inflammation of the colon and rectum. Accurate assessment essential for effective treatment, with endoscopic evaluation, particularly Mayo Endoscopic Score (MES), serving as key diagnostic tool. However, MES measurement can be subjective inconsistent, leading to variability in treatment decisions. Deep learning approaches have shown promise providing more objective standardized assessments UC severity. Methods: This study utilized publicly available images patients analyze compare performance state-of-the-art deep neural networks automated classification. Several architectures were tested determine most model grading The F1 score, accuracy, recall, precision calculated all models, statistical analysis was conducted verify statistically significant differences between networks. Results: VGG19 found best-performing network, achieving QWK score 0.876 macro-averaged 0.7528 across classes. among top-performing models very small suggesting that selection should depend on specific deployment requirements. Conclusions: demonstrates multiple network could automate severity Simpler achieve competitive results larger challenging assumption necessarily provide better clinical outcomes.
