In this contribution, we compare basic neural networks with convolutional neural networks for cut failure classification during fiber laser cutting. The experiments are performed by cutting thin electrical sheets with a 500 W single-mode fiber laser ...
The evolution of robotic technology and its diffusion does not seem to have been adequately accompanied by the development and implementation of surgeon training programs that ensure skilled and safe device use at the start of the learning curve. The...

Surgical instrument segmentation is critical for the field of computer-aided surgery system. Most of deep-learning based algorithms only use either multi-scale information or multi-level information, which may lead to ambiguity of semantic informatio...
Analysis of operative data with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is expected to improve the knowledge and professional skills of surgeons. Identification of objects in videos recorded during surgery can be used for surgical skill assessment and s...
INTRODUCTION: Although robot-assisted nephroureterectomy (RANU) has been increasingly used worldwide, the history of RANU remains short, and the optimal surgical method for performing RANU has yet to be established. Here we introduce the ideal approa...

BACKGROUND: Control of the joints of robotic surgical instruments is difficult owing to hysteresis, and tendon twisting due to axial rotation of surgical tools also causes hysteresis. Therefore, a new mechanism is needed to prevent tendon twisting.
Vision-based detection and tracking of surgical instrument are attractive because it relies purely on surgical instrument already in the operating scenario. The vision knowledge of the surgical instruments is a crucial piece of topic for surgical tas...
