1. A teleoperated surgical system comprising:
a surgical instrument;
an actuator coupled to impart motion to the surgical instrument in response to a control signal;
a control signal rules information structure that provides classifications for kinematic information about the surgical system, based upon kinematic information recorded for a multiplicity of prior occurrences of a surgical procedure, and that associates the classifications with control signals;
a processor communicatively coupled to the actuator, to a sensor and to the control signal rules information structure, the processor configured to perform operations comprising:
receiving the kinematic information that indicates one or more of instantaneous velocity, instantaneous acceleration, instantaneous three-dimensional position, current path of motion or predicted path of motion of the surgical instrument;
identifying a classification of the received kinematic information based upon the classifications provided by the control signal rules information structure; and
launching a control signal associated by the control signal rules information structure with the identified classification.
