摘要

Traditional Chinese acupuncture methods often face controversy in clinical practice due to their high subjectivity. Additionally, current intelligent-assisted acupuncture systems have two major limitations: slow acupoint localization speed and low accuracy. To address these limitations, a new method leverages the excellent inference efficiency of the state-space model Mamba, while retaining the advantages of the attention mechanism in the traditional DETR architecture, to achieve efficient global information integration and provide high-quality feature information for acupoint localization tasks. Furthermore, by employing the concept of residual likelihood estimation, it eliminates the need for complex upsampling processes, thereby accelerating the acupoint localization task. Our method achieved state-of-the-art (SOTA) accuracy on a private dataset of acupoints on the human back, with an average Euclidean distance pixel error (EPE) of 7.792 and an average time consumption of 10.05 milliseconds per localization task. Compared to the second-best algorithm, our method improved both accuracy and speed by approximately 14%. This significant advancement not only enhances the efficacy of acupuncture treatment but also demonstrates the commercial potential of automated acupuncture robot systems.
