Method for advanced algorithm support
A surgical computer-implement surgical system may include a surgical computing system (e.g., a surgical hub), one or more surgical data sources in communication with the surgical computing system, a surgical device in communication with the surgical computing system, and a processor. Data generated by the one or more surgical data sources may be received by the processor. Such data may be used, by the processor, to train a machine learning (ML) model (e.g., a neural network). ML model may be deployed to affect an operation of the surgical device. For example, the ML model may be deployed to the surgical hub to affect an operation of the surgical device.
