Planning Sensing Sequences for Subsurface 3D Tumor Mapping

Surgical automation has the potential to enable increased precision and reduce the per-patient workload of overburdened human surgeons. An effective automation system must be able to sense and map subsurface anatomy, such as tumors, efficiently and accurately. In this work, we present a method that plans a sequence of sensing actions to map the 3D geometry of subsurface tumors. We leverage a seque...
