The subproject UVa (Universidad de Valladolid) participates in IEEE CaribCon 2026

On Friday, 23 October 2026, Alfonso Bahillo (Universidad de Valladolid) presented the paper “Estimation of Urinary Flow Using Acoustic Features: Towards Accessible Uroflowmetry in Resource-Limited Settings” at the IEEE CaribCon 2026, held from October 23–25 in Kingstone, Jamaica.

The work presented a new dataset of 141 patients, combining recordings from the Hospital Clínico Universitario de Valladolid, synchronized with reference uroflowmeter recordings, and the University of Deusto, to improve the balance between pathological and healthy voiding patterns. Four regression models were trained to estimate voiding flow rate from acoustic features extracted from 1 s audio windows. Data fusion across both centers improved model generalization.

The presentation showcased research results developed at the Universidad de Valladolid within the AGINPLACE project.
