Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The application of artificial intelligence (AI) in the assessment of procedural skills on a simulation platform using the global rating scale (GRS) has shown promise. Our team developed an open-source, low-cost simulation platform for the development of laparoscopic skills in low-resource settings, with skill assessment provided by video-based peer review and AI. The generalizability of AI trained on one procedure to evaluate general procedural skills within a single training system is unknown. This study examines the feasibility of generalizing AI-based assessments across procedures in a training system.
