PURPOSE: Portable sleep monitoring devices with less-attached sensors and high-accuracy sleep staging methods can expedite sleep disorder diagnosis. The aim of this study was to propose a single-channel EEG sleep staging model, SleepStageNet, which e...
OBJECTIVE: Obstructive sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) events, unlike central events, are associated with increased respiratory effort. Esophageal pressure (P ) monitoring is the gold standard for measuring respiratory effort, but it is typically po...

Automatic sleep staging has been often treated as a simple classification problem that aims at determining the label of individual target polysomnography epochs one at a time. In this paper, we tackle the task as a sequence-to-sequence classification...
Sleep Apnea is a sleep disorder which causes stop in breathing for a short duration of time that happens to human beings and animals during sleep. Electroencephalogram (EEG) plays a vital role in detecting the sleep apnea by sensing and recording the...
Analysis of sleep for the diagnosis of sleep disorders such as Type-1 Narcolepsy (T1N) currently requires visual inspection of polysomnography records by trained scoring technicians. Here, we used neural networks in approximately 3,000 normal and abn...

Correctly identifying sleep stages is important in diagnosing and treating sleep disorders. This paper proposes a joint classification-and-prediction framework based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for automatic sleep staging, and, subsequent...
Narcolepsy is a rare life-long disease that exists in two forms, narcolepsy type-1 (NT1) or type-2 (NT2), but only NT1 is accepted as clearly defined entity. Both types of narcolepsies belong to the group of central hypersomnias (CH), a spectrum of p...
Sleep apnea-hypopnea event detection has been widely studied using various biosignals and algorithms. However, most minute-by-minute analysis techniques have difficulty detecting accurate event start/end positions. Furthermore, they require hand-engi...
