The science behind Nadiswara

A single-point pulse sensor, machine intelligence that learns from practitioners, and a cloud pipeline that turns a short reading into a wellness report.

Methodology

Research Methodology

Turning a traditional pulse reading into something repeatable and measurable is the problem Nadiswara set out to solve: a sensor, a clean signal and a pattern-matching model that a practitioner can read alongside their own Nadi Pariksha.

  • Nadiswara is an outcome of the 10+ years of research experience of the founder, Dr. Basavaraj K.
  • Nadiswara combines pattern-matching software with low-power hardware to describe a pulse in the language of the doshas, the five elements and the meridians.
  • The machine intelligence software includes an artificial intelligence (AI) technique to recognize unknown pulse patterns by comparing them with known database pulse signals using learning algorithms.

Better Deep Learning Models

Through intelligent architecting of the system, the AI algorithms developed for Nadiswara are continuously learning from human intervention when practitioners either confirm or reject the findings of the algorithms. These are then automatically redirected back as feedback, to build even better Deep Learning models. Our Nadiswara system ensures that there is a constant supply of supervised pulse data that goes into building better models.

From sensor to report

The hardware includes a microphone as the sensor to acquire the pulse and an embedded module that connects by USB-C to an Android phone running the Nadiswara app. The app sends the recording to a cloud pipeline that turns a short reading into a multi-page wellness report, which the practitioner opens, saves or shares from the phone.
