OperA: Attention-Regularized Transformers for Surgical Phase Recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
In this paper we introduce OperA, a transformer-based model that accurately predicts surgical phases from long video sequences. A novel attention regularization loss encourages the model to focus on high-quality frames during training. Moreover, the attention weights are utilized to identify characteristic high attention frames for each surgical phase,
