Surgical Anatomy Recognition with Context Learning using Foundation Representations
Ronald L. P. D. de Jong, Tim J. M. Jaspers, Raf A. H. Vervoort +9
Accurate recognition of anatomical structures is essential for safe and effective minimally invasive surgery (MIS), yet it remains underexplored in surgical computer vision due to…
Object Tokens as a Bridge Between Segmentation and Visual Question Answering in Robotic Surgery
Yiping Li, Ronald de Jong, Romy van Jaarsveld +5
Visual Question Answering (VQA) in robotic surgery, referred to as surgical VQA, requires high-level understanding of complex surgical scenes and the integration of visual percepti…
Comparative validation of surgical phase recognition, instrument keypoint estimation, and instrument instance segmentation in endoscopy: Results of the PhaKIR 2024 challenge
Tobias Rueckert, David Rauber, Raphaela Maerkl +58
Reliable recognition and localization of surgical instruments in endoscopic video recordings are foundational for a wide range of applications in computer- and robot-assisted minim…
SAM-Fed: SAM-Guided Federated Semi-Supervised Learning for Medical Image Segmentation
Sahar Nasirihaghighi, Negin Ghamsarian, Yiping Li +3
Medical image segmentation is clinically important, yet data privacy and the cost of expert annotation limit the availability of labeled data. Federated semi-supervised learning (F…
Analysis of Transferability Estimation Metrics for Surgical Phase Recognition
Prabhant Singh, Yiping Li, Yasmina Al Khalil
Fine-tuning pre-trained models has become a cornerstone of modern machine learning, allowing practitioners to achieve high performance with limited labeled data. In surgical video…
SemiVT-Surge: Semi-Supervised Video Transformer for Surgical Phase Recognition
Yiping Li, Ronald de Jong, Sahar Nasirihaghighi +8
