BACKGROUND: The standard approaches to diagnosing autism spectrum disorder (ASD) evaluate between 20 and 100 behaviors and take several hours to complete. This has in part contributed to long wait times for a diagnosis and subsequent delays in access...
BACKGROUND: Distal pancreatectomy with en-bloc celiac axis resection (DP-CAR) for borderline resectable pancreatic body cancer is increasingly being performed [1,2]. For survival benefits, obtaining margin-free resection (R0 resection) is crucial [3]...
Surgical tool detection is attracting increasing attention from the medical image analysis community. The goal generally is not to precisely locate tools in images, but rather to indicate which tools are being used by the surgeon at each instant. The...
Accurate surgery duration estimation is necessary for optimal OR planning, which plays an important role in patient comfort and safety as well as resource optimization. It is, however, challenging to preoperatively predict surgery duration since it v...
OBJECTIVE: Video-based teaching is considered highly effective in debriefing, especially in minimally invasive surgeries. In this study, the benefits of using a new integrated video recording system, were investigated and compared to those of the sta...

Video-based facial expression recognition has received substantial attention over the past decade, while early expression detection (EED) is still a relatively new and challenging problem. The goal of EED is to identify an expression as quickly as po...
Movement analysis of infants' body parts is momentous for the early detection of various movement disorders such as cerebral palsy. Most existing techniques are either marker-based or use wearable sensors to analyze the movement disorders. Such techn...

Color is a fundamental image feature of facial expressions. For example, when we furrow our eyebrows in anger, blood rushes in, turning some face areas red; or when one goes white in fear as a result of the drainage of blood from the face. Surprising...
Without haptic feedback, robotic surgeons rely on visual processing to interpret the operative field. To provide guidance for teaching in this environment, we analyzed intracorporeal actions and behaviors of a robotic surgeon. Six hours of video were...
