| dc.title | Cataract surgical phase recognition using deep learning techniques | en_US |
| dcterms.abstract | Understanding surgical phases is pivotal for advancing smart operating room technology. While significant strides have been made in automating surgical phase recognition, prevailing methodologies are often constrained by three primary challenges. (1) The extremely imbalanced data distribution makes it hard for the network to train efficiently, leading to models prone to overfitting and weak generalization. (2) Traditional 2D networks, which rely solely on single image input, are deficient in temporal data. This limitation hinders their ability to discern distinct visual attributes for individual frames, as well as to process motion-related information effectively. (3) Additionally, the approach of recognizing frames in isolation often leads to diminished accuracy. This issue, referred to as phase shaking, is characterized by inconsistent predictions within each phase. | en_US |
| dcterms.abstract | In this thesis, we present two novel deep-learning approaches to address these challenges. First, to effectively utilize the time information of surgical videos, we proposed a frame sequence-based method, which adopts a frame sequence as network input. The network also employs a Focal Loss and Dropout strategy to mitigate the data imbalance problem. | en_US |
| dcterms.abstract | Second, to alleviate the phase shaking problem, we proposed a Surgical Phase Localization Network (SurgPLAN) to facilitate a more accurate and stable surgical phase recognition with the principle of temporal detection. We develop a novel Pyramid Slow-Fast (PSF) architecture, functioning as the core visual framework. It is uniquely designed to encapsulate multi-scale spatial and temporal characteristics through its dual-branch system, which operates at varying frame sampling rates. Furthermore, our research introduces the Temporal Phase Localization (TPL) module, which is pivotal in producing predictions for surgical phases. It achieves this through the generation of temporal region proposals, thereby ensuring both accuracy and consistency in the phase prediction process. | en_US |
| dcterms.abstract | Extensive experiments of each method confirm the significant advantages of our proposed approaches. The proposed method mitigates the above-mentioned problems effectively, leading to more accurate and stable surgical phase recognition. | en_US |
