Surgical procedure recognition is a critical field in robotic-assisted surgery that focuses on identifying complex surgical tasks like suturing, needle passing, and knot tying. This research explores Quantum Machine Learning (QML) algorithms, specifically the Quantum Support Vector Classifier (QSVC), to analyze surgical gestures more effectively than traditional methods. Using the JIGSAWS dataset with 76 motion characteristics, the study compared QSVC performance against a conventional Support Vector Classifier (SVC) using metrics like accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. The results demonstrated that QML-derived models significantly outperform classical machine learning techniques in processing surgical kinematic data. The research suggests that QML has transformative potential in surgical robotics and gesture recognition, particularly as quantum computing advances. By providing more sophisticated analysis of surgical procedures, this approach promises to enhance real-time surgical support, improve medical education, and ultimately develop more context-aware surgical systems that could improve patient care.
