Abstract

BACKGROUND: Automated surgical workflow recognition is the foundation for computational models of medical knowledge to interpret surgical procedures. The fine-grained segmentation of the surgical process and the improvement of the accuracy of surgical workflow recognition facilitate the realization of autonomous robotic surgery. This study aimed to construct a multigranularity temporal annotation dataset of the standardized robotic left lateral sectionectomy (RLLS) and develop a deep learning-based automated model for multilevel overall and effective surgical workflow recognition.
