Abstract

BACKGROUND: This study was conducted to address the existing drawbacks of inconvenience and high costs associated with sleep monitoring. In this research, we performed sleep staging using continuous photoplethysmography (PPG) signals for sleep monitoring with wearable devices. Furthermore, our aim was to develop a more efficient sleep monitoring method by considering both the interpretability and uncertainty of the model's prediction results, with the goal of providing support to medical professionals in their decision-making process.
