Temporal Matching in Endoscopic Images for Remote-Controlled Robotic Surgery

Temporal matching is applied in the frame of the formation of high-level entities in remote-controlled robotic surgery. The objective is to track tumor boundaries over time to improve the segmentation stage in each image of the sequence to facilitate the tracking and localization of the tumor. It ma...
