AI for Assessing Microsurgery Skills
Analysis
This paper presents an AI-driven framework for automated assessment of microanastomosis surgical skills. The work addresses the limitations of subjective expert evaluations by providing an objective, real-time feedback system. The use of YOLO, DeepSORT, self-similarity matrices, and supervised classification demonstrates a comprehensive approach to action segmentation and skill classification. The high accuracy rates achieved suggest a promising solution for improving microsurgical training and competency assessment.
