Actionable Real-Time Modeling of Surgical Team Dynamics via Time-Expanded Interaction Graphs

Surgical team performance arises from complex interactions between technical execution and non-technical skills, including communication and coordination dynamics. However, current surgical AI systems predominantly model visual workflow signals, lacking structured representations of intraoperative team interactions over time. We propose a real-time actionable approach for modeling surgical team dynamics using time-expanded interaction graphs, where team members are modeled as time-indexed nodes and communication exchanges define directed edges. This spatio-temporal expansion enables dynamic interaction modeling, while allowing efficient inference with a static graph neural network. The model predicts procedural efficiency as the deviation from the expected duration and supports real-time deployment. Beyond prediction, we perform a counterfactual analysis to identify minimal changes in communication structure and interpretable behavioral variables associated with improved predicted outcomes. Experiments on recorded surgical procedures show that structured modeling of team interactions improves early identification of prolonged interventions and provides coherent, actionable explanations. This work advances surgical AI toward real-time, team-aware, and actionable decision support in the operating room.

Emotion Analysis using Multi-Layered Networks for Graphical Representation of Tweets

Anticipating audience reaction towards a certain piece of text is integral to several facets of society ranging from politics, research, and commercial industries. Sentiment analysis (SA) is a useful natural language processing (NLP) technique that utilizes both lexical/statistical and deep learning methods to determine whether different sized texts exhibit a positive, negative, or neutral emotion. However, there is currently a lack of tools that can be used to analyse groups of independent texts and extract the primary emotion from the whole set. Therefore, the current paper proposes a novel algorithm referred to as the Multi-Layered Tweet Analyzer (MLTA) that graphically models social media text using multi-layered networks (MLNs) in order to better encode relationships across independent sets of tweets. Graph structures are capable of capturing meaningful relationships in complex ecosystems compared to other representation methods. State of the art Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are used to extract information from the Tweet-MLN and make predictions based on the extracted graph features. Results show that not only does the MLTA predict from a larger set of possible emotions, delivering a more accurate sentiment compared to the standard positive, negative or neutral, it also allows for accurate group-level predictions of Twitter data.

TEP-GNN: Accurate Execution Time Prediction of Functional Tests using Graph Neural Networks

Predicting the performance of production code prior to actually executing or benchmarking it is known to be highly challenging. In this paper, we propose a predictive model, dubbed TEP-GNN, which demonstrates that high-accuracy performance prediction is possible for the special case of predicting unit test execution times. TEP-GNN uses FA-ASTs, or flow-augmented ASTs, as a graph-based code representation approach, and predicts test execution times using a powerful graph neural network (GNN) deep learning model. We evaluate TEP-GNN using four real-life Java open source programs, based on 922 test files mined from the projects' public repositories. We find that our approach achieves a high Pearson correlation of 0.789, considerable outperforming a baseline deep learning model. However, we also find that more work is needed for trained models to generalize to unseen projects. Our work demonstrates that FA-ASTs and GNNs are a feasible approach for predicting absolute performance values, and serves as an important intermediary step towards being able to predict the performance of arbitrary code prior to execution.
