Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have significantly improved sleep-scoring algorithms, bringing their performance close to the theoretical limit of approximately 80%, which aligns with inter-scorer agreement levels. While this sugg...
Sleep staging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. Traditional sleep staging requires manual classification by professional technicians based on the characteristic features of each sleep stage. This process is time-...
INTRODUCTION: Sleep disorders significantly disrupt normal sleep patterns and pose serious health risks. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as questionnaires and polysomnography, often require extensive time and are susceptible to errors. This high...

Accurate identification of sleep stages and disorders is crucial for maintaining health, preventing chronic conditions, and improving diagnosis and treatment. Direct respiratory measurements, as key biomarkers, are missing in traditional wrist- or fi...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and related hypoxia are well-established cardiovascular and neurocognitive risk factors. Current multi-sensor diagnostic approaches are intrusive and prone to misdiagnosis when simplified. This study introduces an enhanc...
Polysomnography is the standard method for sleep stage classification; however, it is costly and requires controlled environments, which can disrupt natural sleep patterns. Smartwatches offer a practical, non-invasive, and cost-effective alternative ...
Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is one of the most common sleep disorders affecting nearly one billion of the global adult population, making it a major public health issue. Even if in-lab polysomnography (PSG) remains the gold stan...
