SurgLAT: Surgical Latent Attention Tracking for Depth-Aware Robotic Laparoscope Control

arXiv:2608. 07876v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous laparoscopic camera control requires continuous understanding of the surgeon's operative intent in dynamic surgical scenes, where the target operative region is not a stable physical object but a latent and temporally evolving attention state.

Temporally Consistent Label Interpolation for Robust Surgical Multi-Task Learning under Challenging Conditions

Effective multi-task learning for surgical scene understanding is fundamentally hindered by annotation granularity mismatch; temporal workflow tasks such as phase recognition, step recognition and anticipation benefit from dense frame-level supervision, whereas pixel-level spatial tasks including instrument segmentation and action recognition are only sparsely annotated on selected keyframes due to prohibitive labeling costs. This supervision imbalance undermines shared representation learning and limits joint optimization across heterogeneous surgical tasks.

MedClaw: Heuristic Agent Harness for Long-Horizon Surgical Video Reasoning

arXiv:2608. 14015v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding tens-of-minutes surgical videos requires long-horizon temporal reasoning, answering what happens before, after, or across stages of a procedure by grounding the question in visual evidence spread across time.
