Leveraging Synthetic Data to Develop a Machine Learning Model for Voiding Flow Rate Prediction From Audio Signals by Marcos Lazaro Alvarez, Alfonso Bahillo, Laura Arjona, Diogo Marcelo Nogueira, Elsa Ferreira Gomes, Alipio M. Jorge

“…Sound-based uroflowmetry (SU) is a non-invasive technique emerging as an alternative to traditional uroflowmetry (UF) to calculate the voiding flow rate based on the sound generated by the urine impacting the water in a toilet, enabling remote monitoring and reducing the patient burden and clinical costs. This study trains four different machine learning (ML) models (random forest, gradient boosting, support vector machine and convolutional neural network) using both regression and classification approaches to predict and categorize the voiding flow rate from sound events. …”
