Patent number: 12327489Abstract: A surgical training model can have features for training surgical suturing techniques. The training model can be formed as a sheet of simulated tissue having at least one cut with markings arranged on either side of the cut. The markings can be formed of a first layer of resilient simulated tissue material having a color that contrasts with a color of the remainder of the sheet of simulated tissue material. The sheet of simulated tissue material can have several cuts having different configurations and orientations to facilitate suturing training for a variety of tissue orientations. The sheet of simulated tissue material can further include holes positioned to be mounted to a base of a surgical training system. The sheet of simulated tissue material can be manufactured by molding a marking layer and casting a tissue layer over the marking layer.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2022Date of Patent: June 10, 2025Assignee: Applied Medical Resources CorporationInventors: Gregory K.

Publication number: 20240249158Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure describe machine learning monitoring and retraining techniques for automatically triggering model retraining based on evaluation scores. The techniques include receiving a request to process an input data object with a target machine learning model that is previously trained using an at least partially synthetic training dataset. The techniques include identifying a synthetic data object from the training dataset that corresponds to the input data object and, in response, modifying a holistic evaluation score for the model, initiating the performance of a labeling process for assigning a ground truth label to the input data object, and augmenting a supplemental training dataset with the input data object and the ground truth label. In the event that the holistic evaluation score decreased beyond a threshold, the model may be retrained with the supplemental training dataset.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 3, 2023Publication date: July 25, 2024Inventors: Premnath Kandhasamy NARAYANAN, David S.
