Publication number: 20260260488Abstract: A system and method of identifying an adverse event using a video of a surgery and a two-stage surgical phase recognition module. The method includes receiving, by the module, a video of the surgery, where the video comprises a sequence of video frames. The module comprises a first stage that includes a neural network and a second stage that includes a multi-stage temporal convolution network. The method includes extracting, using the first stage, visual information content of a single frame based on the single frame; identifying, using the second stage, surgical phases captured in the frames of the video based on the visual information content from the first stage; and identifying, using the identified surgical phases, an adverse event during the surgery. An adverse event includes the omission of a surgical phase and an injury to the patient. The identification can occur in real-time or near-real-time.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2023Publication date: September 3, 2026Inventors: Tomer Golany, Ehud Rivlin, Daniel Freedman, Nadav Rabani, Yun Liu, Amit Aides, Gregory Sean Corrado, Boulous Jaber, Yossi Matias

Patent number: 12541854Abstract: A computer system may perform an image-related function using a segmentation (e.g., an image mask) that has been generated by a custom segmentation machine learning model. To begin, the system may receive image data corresponding to a surgical scene including a background that includes an anatomical feature and at least one surgical tool. The system may also generate segmentation data using the custom segmentation machine learning model based on inputting the first image data to the custom segmentation machine learning model. The system may also include generating a segmentation of the at least one surgical tool using the segmentation data. Once the segmentation has been generated, the system may perform an image-related function using the segmentation.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2022Date of Patent: February 3, 2026Assignee: Verily Life Sciences LLCInventors: George Leifman, Amit Aides, Tomer Golany, Daniel Freedman, Ehud Rivlin

Patent number: 11918178Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards systems and methods that leverage machine-learned models to decrease the rate at which abnormal sites are missed during a gastroenterological procedure. In particular, the system and methods of the present disclosure can use machine-learning techniques to determine the coverage rate achieved during a gastroenterological procedure. Measuring the coverage rate of the gastroenterological procedure can allow medical professionals to be alerted when the coverage output is deficient and thus allow an additional coverage to be achieved and as a result increase in the detection rate for abnormal sites (e.g., adenoma, polyp, lesion, tumor, etc.) during the gastroenterological procedure.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Verily Life Sciences LLCInventors: Daniel Freedman, Yacob Yochai Blau, Liran Katzir, Amit Aides, Ilan Moshe Shimshoni, Ehud Benyamin Rivlin, Yossi Matias

Patent number: 10559312Abstract: Methods, computing systems and computer program products implement embodiments of the present invention that include receiving, at a first time, first video and first audio signals generated in response to a user uttering a passphrase, and receiving, at a second time subsequent to the first time, second video and second audio signals generated in response the user uttering the passphrase. Upon computing an audio temporal alignment between the first and the second audio signals and computing a video temporal alignment between the first and the second video signal, the user can be authenticated by comparing the audio temporal alignment to the video temporal alignment.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2016Date of Patent: February 11, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Hagai Aronowitz, Amit Aides
