  ## Background
4
 
5
- With the growing availability of wearable devices, photoplethysmography (PPG) has become a promising non-invasive tool for monitoring cardiovascular health. This model estimates vascular age (AI-vascular age) from PPG signals, providing insights into an individual's cardiovascular health and risk.
6
 
7
- The model was developed and evaluated using data from the UK Biobank (UKBB) cohort, where PPG signals were collected in a standardized format.

  ## Use Case
10
 
11
- The `VascularAge` model is designed to help assess cardiovascular health by estimating vascular age. It can be used for:
12
 
13
- - **Risk Stratification**: Identify individuals at higher risk for cardiovascular events.
14
- - **Health Monitoring**: Track cardiovascular health over time for personalized intervention.
15
 
16
- This model provides a non-invasive approach for scalable, real-time cardiovascular health assessment using PPG signals from wearable devices. It has been specifically trained to handle PPG data as found in the UKBB dataset, ensuring its applicability in research settings and clinical evaluations involving similar data.
