=====CIS II Schedule for Spring 2025 (Subject to change)===== **Note:** This schedule is very tentative and will be changed significantly in the first weeks of the course, as projects and project teams are defined. After that, it will be modified as the semester unfolds. * [[courses:456|Follow this link to return to the main CIS II page]] * [[courses:456:2025:projects|Follow this link to see the projects for 2025]] * [[:courses:456:2025:projects:ideas:456-2025-possible-projects | list of the project ideas and each individual set of slides for 2025]] **January 21** * {{ :courses:456:2025:cis_ii_kickoff_-_2025.pdf |Introduction and organization}} * Non-disclosure agreement * Presentation of project ideas * Benjamin Killeen: 9, 10 * Mojtaba Esfandiari: 3,4 * Adnan Munawar: 15, 16, 17 * Ugur Tumerdem: 6,7 **January 23** * Presentation of project ideas * Amit Jain: 1 * Peiyao Zhang: 5 * Aabhas Jain: 2 * Jeeun Kang: 11, 12, 13 * Manish Sahu: 24, 25 * Adnan Munawar: 18, 20 * Jesse Haworth: 21, 22, 23 * Iulian Iordachita: 35 **January 28** * Presentation of project ideas * Yixuan Wu: 26, 27 * Ugur Tumerdem: 6, 8 * Balazs Vagvolgyi: 29, 30 * Hisashi Ishida: 31, 32 * Haoying (Jack) Zhou: 33 * Jasmine Cho: 39 * Todd McNutt: 28 * Adnan Munawar: 36 * Nick Greene: 41 **January 30** * Presentation of project ideas * Hao Ding: 37, 38, 40 * Jintan Zhang: 34 * Lalithkumar Seenivasan: 42 * Deepa Galaiya: 43 * Guest lecture on medical device development and project management (Prof. Kazanzides) * {{ :courses:456:2025:mskcc_systemrequirements.pdf | MSKCC System Requirements}} * {{ :courses:456:2025:developmentprocess.pdf | Development Process}} **February 4** * Project plan presentations ({{ :courses:456:2025:2025_project_plan_presentation_rubric.pdf |}}) * Team 1: Control of Eye Snake Robot Using Data Driven Models * Team 2: Optimization Based Teleoperated Control of Eye Robots **February 6** * Project plan presentations * Team 3: Robotic Assistant for MRI-Guided Low Back Pain Injection * Team 4: Autonomous Puncture Detection in Retinal Vein Cannulation Using Deep Learning Algorithms * Team 5: Intelligent Motion Scaling for Teleoperated Robotic Surgery **February 11** * Project plan presentations * Team 6: 3D Real-time FBG-based Stylet Shape Sensing * Team 7: Deformation Suturing Simulation in AMBF * Team 8: Multilateral Teleoperation based Haptic Training System for the dVRK **February 13** * Project plan presentations * Team 9: Automating Robotic Surgical Suturing using RL & IL * Team 10: Eye Motion Compensation in Robotic Subretinal Injections * Team 11: Eye Snake Localization Using Vision **February 18** * Project plan presentations * Team 12: Video-based methods for surgeon’s pose analysis in MIS * Team 13: Simulation Assisted Navigation for Skull Surgery * Team 14: Transsphenoidal surgical simulator **February 20** * Project plan presentations * Team 16: Realistic 3D pelvic phantoms and a photoacoustic/ultrasound imaging platform * Team 17: dVRK Instrument Segmentation and Pose Estimation through High-Resolution Endoscope * Team 18: Advanced ultrasound technologies for prostate cancer: Motion tracking using sparse photoacoustic signals **February 25** * Project plan presentations * Team 19: Spatial recognition and synthetic aperture focusing in real-time, non-contact ultrasound imaging * Team 20: Diffusion-based Vertebra Reconstruction * Team 21: Digital Twin Representation-based Surgical Phase Recognition **February 27** * **IMPORTANT: Project plan report due at 1:30pm** * Project plan presentations * Team 22: Natural Language Interface for Surgical Robotic System * Team 23: Vision-based Soft Tissue Modeling for Digital Twin-based Surgical Robotics * Team 24: DDS middleware for medical robotics **March 4** * Project plan presentations * Team 25: Supervised Autonomous Robotic Renal Tumor Surgery (SARRTS) * Background reading presentations ({{ :courses:456:2025:2025_background_reading_presentations_rubric.pdf |}}) * Team 11 (2p): Eye Snake Localization Using Vision * Team 12 (2p): Video-based methods for surgeon’s pose analysis in MIS **March 6** * Background reading presentations * Team 13 (3p): Simulation Assisted Navigation for Skull Surgery * Team 6 (3p): 3D Real-time FBG-based Stylet Shape Sensing * Team 19 (3p): Spatial recognition and synthetic aperture focusing in real-time, non-contact **March 11** * Background reading presentations * Team 8 (3p): Multilateral Teleoperation based Haptic Training System for the dVRK * Team 3 (3p): Robotic Assistant for MRI-Guided Low Back Pain Injection * Team 10 (2p): Eye Motion Compensation in Robotic Subretinal Injections * Team 2 (2p): Optimization Based Teleoperated Control of Eye Robots **March 13** * Background reading presentations * Team 5 (2p): Intelligent Motion Scaling for Teleoperated Robotic Surgery * Team 7 (2p): Deformation Suturing Simulation in AMBF * Team 9 (2p): Automating Robotic Surgical Suturing using RL & IL * Team 4 (2p): Autonomous Puncture Detection in Retinal Vein Cannulation Using Deep Learning Algorithms * Team 1 (2p): Control of Eye Snake Robot Using Data Driven Models **March 18 -
