Statement of objectives – Intended Audiences:
In recent years, autonomous systems in medicine have attracted growing research interests in an enormous scope of applications, especially in preoperative diagnosis and intraoperative surgical operation scenes. Autonomous systems can be utilized to assist human operations or perform remote procedures under the surgeon’s command. These systems typically are equipped with various sensory inputs which allow them to intelligently detect targets, recognize the intentions of the human teammates, perform specific surgical tasks with enhanced performance, and even interact in a complex environment where the system needs to understand and adapt to human behavior in a cognitive way.
However, due to the limited perception capacity of existing applications, such as awareness, comprehension, and understanding of the interacting scenario, the incapacity of recognizing the intentions of the human teammates and efficiently understanding human behavior, it is hard to guarantee security in complex environments. Some medical systems have a shortage of cognitive ability of reasoning, problem-solving, planning, abstract thinking, and complex idea comprehension so that they cannot adapt to the robot system according to human behavior. At the same time, the medical system lacking learning ability has a poor optimization without self-adjustment to hamper their spreading in practical applications and development.
Hence, how to integrate advanced designs, modeling, perception, learning, control, and cognition, which involve the highest levels of the imaginative ability to bring the multi-information together to create a novel solution, is an effective way to enhance the level of autonomy for the intelligent medical system. It is becoming an inspiring and promising topic to improve the performance of medicine.
This workshop aims at bringing together world-class researchers and experts in engineering and medicine to discuss the state-of-art research achievements and advances that contribute to the design of novel technologies for medical applications. By providing a comprehensive overview of the current progress in design, modeling, perception, control, this workshop will prompt the identification of existing open challenges and possible ways to the autonomous system for medicine.
