Large-Small Model Collaboration for Zero-Shot Surgical Phase Recognition
Task-specific lightweight models for surgical phase recognition excel at capturing temporal dynamics but generalize poorly under domain shift. Conversely, surgical foundation models (FMs) offer superior transferability via large-scale pretraining, yet their lack of explicit temporal modeling often yields temporally inc...
