Johns Hopkins Uses Imitation Learning to Develop Robot Surgeon with Human-Level Skill
Nov 18, 2024, 02:56 AM
Researchers at Johns Hopkins University have achieved a groundbreaking advancement in medical robotics by using imitation learning to train a robot to perform surgical tasks with the skill and precision of human surgeons. The robot, trained by watching expert surgeons' videos, can perform surgeries with human-level skill. Unlike human surgeons, the robot does not get tired, does not need breaks, and can theoretically work 24/7. The team is now pushing imitation learning further to enable robots to perform complete surgeries. This development represents a significant step forward in the field of medical robotics and could potentially transform surgical practices.
