1. A method of controlling a surgical robot, the method comprising:
first acquiring information about movement of the surgical robot operating at a first surgical site of a first individual;
designating a first hexahedral block including a first maximum movement range of the surgical robot operating at the first surgical site of the first individual;
dividing the first hexahedral block into a first specified number of a plurality of first sub-blocks;
first storing, for each of the plurality of first sub-blocks, first information on a first sub-block corresponding to a position in which the surgical robot has moved at the first surgical site of the first individual and information about the movement of the surgical robot within the first sub-block;
second acquiring information about movement of the surgical robot operating at a second surgical site of a second individual different from the first individual, the second surgical site being the same in body location as the first surgical site;
designating a second hexahedral block including a second maximum movement range of the surgical robot operating at the second surgical site of the second individual, the second maximum movement range being different from the first maximum movement range;
dividing the second hexahedral block into a second specified number of a plurality of second sub-blocks, the second specified number being the same as the first specified number;
second storing, for each of the plurality of second sub-blocks, second information on a second sub-block corresponding to a position in which the surgical robot has moved at the second surgical site of the second individual and information about the movement of the surgical robot within the second sub-block;
training a machine learning algorithm for controlling the surgical robot with the first information and the second information; and
controlling a driving portion of the surgical robot based on the trained machine learning algorithm to perform a surgery on the same surgical site of a third individual different from the first and second individuals.
