Automatic knowledge-based recognition of low-level tasks in ophthalmological procedures.
Abstract
PURPOSE: Surgical process models (SPMs) have recently been created for situation-aware computer-assisted systems in the operating room. One important challenge in this area is the automatic acquisition of SPMs. The purpose of this study is to present a new method for the automatic detection of low-level surgical tasks, that is, the sequence of activities in a surgical procedure, from microscope video images only. The level of granularity that we addressed in this work is symbolized by activities formalized by triplets
