Key-Value (KV) cache eviction---which retains the KV pairs of the most important tokens while discarding less important ones---is a critical technique for optimizing both memory usage and inference latency in large language models (LLMs). However, existing approaches often rely on simple heuristics-…
Real-time morphological perception and precise end force feedback prediction of surgical robots constitute critical technical elements for ensuring safety and efficacy in complex interventional procedures such as Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). In this paper, we design a minia
A magnetically controlled steerable robot with the capability of flexible navigation and intraoperative ultrasonic imaging and position sensing in neurosurgery is introduced in this paper. The robot system uses a piezoelectric transducer as the ultrasonic imaging beacon and applies a permanent magne

Minimally invasive surgeries (MIS) or natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgeries (NOTES) such as the transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) require the surgical robot to be miniaturized to perform surgical procedures in confined spaces. However, the surgical robot's tiny size poses…
Residency program, a stage of medical postgraduate education, plays an important role in a physician’s professional competency. Each year a resident rotation schedule has to be created, and residents develop practical skills and receive faculty coaching in different rotations. The creation of rotati
Perishable intermediate products are commonly seen in practical manufacturing systems, where the time that intermediate products spend in a buffer is limited by a certain number. Parts have to be scrapped if their maximum allowed time is exceeded. In order to reduce the scrap ratio and optimize the
