SAGE-OR: Semi-supervised Adaptive Scene Graph Generation for Operating Rooms

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

SAGE-OR is a semi‑supervised framework for generating scene graphs in operating rooms that eliminates the need for dense multi‑modal supervision and specialized hardware. It replaces the traditional detect‑then‑reason pipeline with a decoupled representation‑reasoning approach, using frozen foundation models for localization and a lightweight 15‑million‑parameter graph transformer for relational reasoning. On the 4D‑OR benchmark, the core model matches fully supervised baselines (76% F1) and, with unsupervised hand augmentation, reaches 86% F1, achieving near state‑of‑the‑art performance while requiring only relationship and class labels.

SurgRAW: Multi-Agent Workflow with Chain of Thought Reasoning for Robotic Surgical Video Analysis

SurgRAW introduces a multi‑agent, chain‑of‑thought workflow for robotic surgical video analysis, leveraging a new SurgCoTBench benchmark with 14,256 QA pairs across five surgical tasks. The system uses an orchestrator to split scene understanding into two reasoning streams, panel‑discussion‑style collaboration among task‑specific agents, and retrieval‑augmented generation to incorporate surgical knowledge. Experiments show SurgRAW outperforms mainstream vision‑language models and a supervised baseline by 14.61% accuracy.
