LAVIFT: Latent-Action-Guided Vision Fine-Tuning for Surgical Interaction Recognition

Jiajun Cheng, Subarna Tripathi, Sainan Liu, Xiaofan Yu, Shan Lin

Understanding instrument-tissue interactions is essential for context-aware surgical AI and autonomous robotic surgery. Pretrained vision-language models (VLMs) and vision encoders offer an alternative to conventional interaction classifiers by transferring broad visual and seman…Read more
