Learning Multi-modal Representations by Watching Hundreds of Surgical Video Lectures [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Recent advancements in surgical computer vision applications have been driven by vision-only models, which do not explicitly integrate the rich semantics of language into their design. These methods rely on manually annotated surgical videos to predict a fixed set of object categories, limiting their generalizability to unseen surgical procedures and ...

Surgical-VQA: Visual Question Answering in Surgical Scenes using Transformer [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Visual question answering (VQA) in surgery is largely unexplored. Expert surgeons are scarce and are often overloaded with clinical and academic workloads. This overload often limits their time answering questionnaires from patients, medical students or junior residents related to surgical procedures.
