Core Tip This study evaluates 17 advanced deep learning models, including convolutional neural network-, transformer-, and mamba-based architectures, for multi-class upper gastrointestinal disease segmentation. Swin-UMamba achieves the highest segmentation accuracy, while SegFormer balances efficiency and performance. Automated segmentation demonstrates significant clinical value by improving diagnostic precision, reducing missed diagnoses, streamlining treatment planning, and easing physician workload. Key challenges include lighting variability, vague lesion boundaries, multi-label complexities, and dataset limitations. Future directions, such as multi-modal learning, self-supervised techniques, spatio-temporal modeling, and rigorous clinical validation, are essential to enhance model robustness and ensure applicability in diverse healthcare settings for better patient outcomes.
