Purpose#R##N#Surgical processes are complex entities characterized by expressive models and data. Recognizable activities define each surgical process. The principal limitation of current vision-based recognition methods is inefficiency due to the large amount of information captured during a surgical procedure. To overcome this technical challenge, we introduce a surgical gesture recognition system using temperature-based recognition.
