Characterization of sleep stages is essential in the diagnosis of sleep-related disorders but relies on manual scoring of overnight polysomnography (PSG) recordings, which is onerous and labor-intensive. Accordingly, we aimed to develop an accurate d...

Automated analysis of the blood oxygen saturation (SpO) signal from nocturnal oximetry has shown usefulness to simplify the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), including the detection of respiratory events. However, the few preceding studies ...

The overnight polysomnography shows a range of drawbacks to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) that have led to the search for artificial intelligence-based alternatives. Many classic machine learning methods have been already evaluated for this ...

The abnormal pause or rate reduction in breathing is known as the sleep-apnea hypopnea syndrome and affects the quality of sleep of an individual. A novel method for the detection of sleep apnea events (pause in breathing) from peripheral oxygen satu...
STUDY OBJECTIVES: To assess the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity and sleep fragmentation, accurate differentiation between sleep and wakefulness is needed. Sleep staging is usually performed manually using electroencephalog...

STUDY OBJECTIVES: Nocturnal blood pressure (BP) profile shows characteristic abnormalities in OSA, namely acute postapnea BP surges and nondipping BP. These abnormal BP profiles provide prognostic clues indicating increased cardiovascular disease ris...
STUDY OBJECTIVES: Polysomnography is the gold standard for diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) but it is costly and access is often limited. The aim of this study is to develop a clinically useful support vector machine (SVM)-based prediction ...

Snoring is one of the earliest symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS). Snore detection is the first step in developing non-invasive, low-cost, and totally sound-based OSAHS analysis approaches. In this work, we propose a simple...
