                         the automatic diagnosis and classification of neoplastic lesions. 
                         Barretts esophagus (BE) is a common type of reflux that is not 
                         straightforward to be detected by endoscopic surveillance, thus 
                         being way susceptible to erroneous diagnosis, which can cause 
                         cancer when not treated properly. In this work, we introduce the 
                         Optimum-Path Forest (OPF) classifier to the task of automatic 
                         identification of Barretts esophagus, with promising results and 
                         outperforming the wellknown Support Vector Machines (SVM) in the 
                         aforementioned context. We consider describing endoscopic images 
                         by means of feature extractors based on key point information, 
                         such as the Speeded up Robust Features (SURF) and Scale-Invariant 
                         Feature Transform (SIFT), for further designing a 
                         bag-of-visual-words that is used to feed both OPF and SVM 
                         classifiers. The best results were obtained by means of the OPF 
                         classifier for both feature extractors, with values lying on 0.732 
                         (SURF) - 0.735 (SIFT) for sensitivity, 0.782 (SURF) - 0.806 (SIFT) 
                         for specificity, and 0.738 (SURF) - 0.732 (SIFT) for the 
                         accuracy.",
