    Area of Science:

    • Robotics
    • Computer Vision
    • Artificial Intelligence

    Background:

    • Automated surgical gesture recognition is crucial for analytics, skill assessment, and robotic automation.
    • Analyzing surgical motion patterns from robot kinematics alone is challenging due to instrument complexity and anatomical variability.
    • Surgical video offers contextual information but fusing it with kinematic data is difficult due to differing data characteristics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop an effective sensor fusion method for combining robot kinematics and surgical video data.
    • To improve the accuracy and temporal structure of surgical gesture recognition using multimodal data.
    • To dynamically weight kinematic and visual features for enhanced multimodal network training.

    Main Methods:

    • Integration of multimodal attention mechanisms within a two-stream temporal convolutional network.
    • Dynamic weighting of kinematic and visual feature representations based on computed relevance scores.
    • Evaluation on the JIGSAWS benchmark dataset and a novel in vivo dataset of robotic prostatectomy suturing segments.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed multimodal approach achieved higher accuracy and better temporal structure compared to unimodal solutions.
    • Attention scores provided interpretable insights into the network's understanding of individual sensor data.
    • The system demonstrated effective sensor fusion for surgical motion pattern analysis.

    Conclusions:

    • Multimodal attention mechanisms enable effective fusion of robot kinematics and surgical video for improved surgical gesture recognition.
    • The developed system offers a promising approach for advanced automated surgical analytics and skill assessment.
    • Dynamic weighting of sensor features enhances the robustness and interpretability of surgical data analysis.
