Large-Small Model Collaboration for Zero-Shot Surgical Phase Recognition

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper introduces LaST, a large-small collaborative framework for zero-shot surgical phase recognition. It combines a foundation model that generates frame-level phase priors with a lightweight model that refines predictions through iterative temporal refinement, dynamic quality control, and dual-model cross-learning. Experiments show LaST outperforms baseline and state-of-the-art methods, achieving significant accuracy gains on unseen clinical domains.

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.

Retrieval-Augmented Interpretable Learning: Towards Task-Specific Zero-Shot Models in Healthcare

arXiv:2607. 17508v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce Retrieval-Augmented Interpretable Learning (RAIL), a probabilistic meta-learning framework for zero-shot generation of task-specific interpretable models that synthesizes coefficient-space structure from natural-language task descriptions and a memory of previously learned task-specific predictors.
