Findings of the WMT 2021 Biomedical Translation Shared Task: Summaries of Animal Experiments as New Test Set
In the sixth edition of the WMT Biomedical Task, we addressed a total of eight language pairs, namely English/German, English/French, English/Spanish, English/Portuguese, English/Chinese, English/Russian, English/Italian, and English/Basque. Further, our tests were composed of three types of textual test sets. New to this year, we released a test set of summaries of animal experiments, in addition to the test sets of scientific abstracts and terminologies. We received a total of 107 submissions from 15 teams from 6 countries
ESWT - tracking organs during focused ultrasound surgery
We report here our results in a multi-sensor setup reproducing the conditions of an automated focused ultrasound surgery environment. The aim is to continuously predict the position of an internal organ (here the liver) under guided and non-guided free breathing, with the accuracy required by surgery. We have performed experiments with 16 healthy human subjects, two of those taking part in full-scale experiments involving a 3 Tesla MRI machine recording a volume containing the liver. For the other 14 subjects we have used the optical tracker as a surrogate target. All subjects where volunteers who agreed to participate in the experiments after being thoroughly informed about it. For the MRI sessions we have analyzed semi-automatically offline the images in order to obtain the ground truth, the true position of the selected feature of the liver. The results we have obtained with continuously updated random forest models are very promising, we have obtained good prediction-target correlation coefficients for the surrogate targets (0.71 ± 0.1) and excellent for the real targets in the MRI experiments (over 0.91), despite being limited to a lower model update frequency, once every 6.16 seconds
