A novel multi-modal training framework called SurgDepth is proposed for surgical scene understanding, achieving state-of-the-art results on publicly available datasets. The framework uses Vision Transformers (ViTs) to encode both RGB and depth information through a simple fusion mechanism. This approach outperforms previous methods by at least 4%, using a shallow and compute-efficient decoder consisting of ConvNeXt blocks. The SurgDepth model achieves a new state-of-the-art IoU of 0.86 on the EndoVis2022 SAR-RARP50 challenge.

SurgDepth is a new way to help computers understand surgical scenes. It’s like training a computer to look at and analyze pictures taken during surgeries. This can help make surgeries better, safer, and more efficient. The SurgDepth model uses two kinds of information: what the scene looks like (RGB) and how far away things are (depth). By combining these two types of information, SurgDepth is able to understand surgical scenes in a way that’s even better than previous methods.
