Multimodal Sleep Apnea Screening

A research pipeline that combines respiratory acoustics and physiological dynamics for OSA screening.

Problem

Conventional diagnosis is resource-intensive; research explores whether smaller, lower-burden signal sets can retain clinically useful information.

The long-term goal is accessible, interpretable and robust screening that can guide who should receive full diagnostic testing.

The pipeline remains readable without animation and progressively activates while scrolling.
