Sleep stage classification is a significant measure in assessing sleep quality and diagnosing sleep disorders. Many researchers have investigated automatic sleep stage classification methods and achieved promising results. However, these methods igno...
PURPOSE: To establish a simple and noninvasive screening test for sleep apnea (SA) that imposes less burden on potential patients. The specific objective of this study was to verify the effectiveness of past and future single-lead electrocardiogram (...
PURPOSE: Accurately identifying sleep states (REM, NREM, and Wake) and brief awakenings (arousals) is essential for diagnosing sleep disorders. Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for such assessments but is costly and requires overnight monit...
Sleep posture, a vital aspect of sleep wellness, has become a crucial focus in sleep medicine. Studies show that supine posture can lead to a higher occurrence of obstructive sleep apnea, while lateral posture might reduce it. For bedridden patients,...
Sleep apnea diagnosis relies on polysomnography (PSG), which is resource-intensive and requires manual analysis to differentiate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) from central sleep apnea (CSA). Existing portable devices, while valuable in detecting slee...
This study explores the development of a deep learning model using a neck-wearable piezoelectric sensor to accurately distinguish severe sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) from habitual snoring, addressing the underdiagnosis of SAS in adults. From 2018 to 20...

OBJECTIVE: To develop a novel method for improved screening of sleep apnea in home environments, focusing on reliable estimation of the Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) without the need for highly precise event localization.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep disorder. Accurate sleep staging is one of the prerequisites in the study of sleep-related disorders and the evaluation of sleep quality. We introduce a novel GraphSleepFormer (GSF) network designed ...
Humans spend a significant portion of their lives in sleep (an essential driver of body metabolism). Moreover, as sleep deprivation could cause various health complications, it is crucial to develop an automatic sleep stage detection model to facilit...
