Working Student - Computer Vision & Data Pipeline

• You will create and curate a dataset for surgical instrument tracking using computer vision, based on recordings from real-world operating rooms (OR)
• You will develop a simulated dataset in a controlled environment covering a range of zoom and focus settings
• You will set up and maintain a dedicated compute node in the rack to run automated, nightly validation pipelines
• You will design and implement scheduling and automation workflows (e.g., cron jobs, services, Docker-based execution)
• You will evaluate and benchmark computer vision pipelines (e.g., object detection, keypoint tracking) using defined performance metrics
• You will analyse validation results and improve the robustness and reproducibility of the pipeline
• You will document datasets, experiments, and findings in a structured way
• You will collaborate with software, hardware, and clinical stakeholders in an interdisciplinary environment
