Maternal, Newborn, and Child Health
Our goal is to employ artificial intelligence (AI) to improve primary care quality and fortify the first 1000 days of life to lower morbidity and mortality rates for moms, babies, and children under 6 in low-resource settings.
Screening for malnutrition and monitoring growth in children under the age of six
We are working on a system that leverages video data from cellphones and computer vision to help frontline health workers measure the height and weight of children in community settings between the ages of six months and six years.Stratification of pregnancy risk
We are developing an AI system that will allow for the early identification of risk factors in expectant moms and the forecasting of unfavourable outcomes for both mothers and infants. With encouraging results, we have created a technological proof-of-concept artificial intelligence model that uses synthetic intrapartum data to predict a variety of peripartum outcomes. -
Pest Management for Cotton Farming
StateThrough an app on Android cellphones, CottonAce is an early warning system driven by artificial intelligence. By providing prompt, targeted advice on when to use pesticides, it assists farmers in safeguarding their crops.
The main user of our system is a cotton farmer known as a "Lead Farmer" who manages pest infestations by setting up pest traps and collaborating closely with farmer welfare initiatives.
The application functions on a basic smartphone and can operate without a network in areas with spotty service. Nine languages—English, Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Telugu, Kannada, Tamil, Odia, and Punjabi—are supported.
