COMPASS: A Formal Framework and Aggregate Dataset for Generalized Surgical Procedure Modeling [PDF]
, 2022 Purpose: We propose a formal framework for the modeling and segmentation of minimally-invasive surgical tasks using a unified set of motion primitives (MPs) to enable more objective labeling and the aggregation of different datasets. Methods: We model dry-lab surgical tasks as finite state machines, representing how the execution of MPs as the basic ...
