            Abstract : 
The region of interest (ROI) matching problem is defined and its application to endoscopic diagnosis is shown. Two kinds of matching procedures are considered: random search and simulation annealing ones. The suitable sequential and parallel algorithms are proposed and their suitability for ROI identification is discussed.
