Beyond Rigid AI: Towards Natural Human-Machine Symbiosis for Interoperative Surgical Assistance
- 融合语音与大模型,通过自然交互实现动态场景分割
- 可识别已知和未知手术物品,性能媲美人工标注
- 支持记忆新物品,适合追求真实人机协同的外科研究
新兴的手术数据科学与机器人解决方案,尤其在术中辅助场景下,亟需自然的人机交互界面以充分发挥其自适应与直观辅助的潜力。当前基于AI的方案仍具本质僵化性,灵活性不足,限制了在动态手术环境中的自然交互。这类方案高度依赖特定任务预训练、固定物种类别及显式手动提示。本文提出一种新型感知代理(Perception Agent),整合语音输入、提示工程的大语言模型(LLMs)、通用分割模型(SAM)与任意点追踪基础模型,实现更自然的实时术中辅助交互。该代理配备记忆存储库,并引入两种新机制以分割未见过的元素,在无需预设的情况下同时处理已知与未知手术要素。其具备记忆新物体的能力,可用于未来手术,显著推进手术中人机共生。在公开数据集上的定量分析表明,该代理性能与耗时更高的手动提示策略相当;定性结果则展示其在自定义数据集中对新型元素(器械、假体移植物、纱布)的有效分割能力。通过实现自然交互并克服僵化缺陷,该工作使基于AI的动态手术实时辅助更接近现实。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Emerging surgical data science and robotics solutions, especially those designed to provide assistance in situ, require natural human-machine interfaces to fully unlock their potential in providing adaptive and intuitive aid. Contemporary AI-driven solutions remain inherently rigid, offering limited flexibility and restricting natural human-machine interaction in dynamic surgical environments. These solutions rely heavily on extensive task-specific pre-training, fixed object categories, and explicit manual-prompting. This work introduces a novel Perception Agent that leverages speech-integrated prompt-engineered large language models (LLMs), segment anything model (SAM), and any-point tracking foundation models to enable a more natural human-machine interaction in real-time intraoperative surgical assistance. Incorporating a memory repository and two novel mechanisms for segmenting unseen elements, Perception Agent offers the flexibility to segment both known and unseen elements in the surgical scene through intuitive interaction. Incorporating the ability to memorize novel elements for use in future surgeries, this work takes a marked step towards human-machine symbiosis in surgical procedures. Through quantitative analysis on a public dataset, we show that the performance of our agent is on par with considerably more labor-intensive manual-prompting strategies. Qualitatively, we show the flexibility of our agent in segmenting novel elements (instruments, phantom grafts, and gauze) in a custom-curated dataset. By offering natural human-machine interaction and overcoming rigidity, our Perception Agent potentially brings AI-based real-time assistance in dynamic surgical environments closer to reality.
