Sleep staging is to score the sleep state of a subject into different sleep stages such as Wake and Rapid Eye Movement (REM). It plays an indispensable role in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. As manual sleep staging through well-train...
BACKGROUND: Experimental investigation of sleep-wake dynamics in animals is an important part of pharmaceutical development. Typically, it involves recording of electroencephalogram, electromyogram, locomotor activity, and electrooculogram. Visual id...

A series of short events, called A-phases, can be observed in the human electroencephalogram (EEG) during Non-Rapid Eye Movement (NREM) sleep. These events can be classified in three groups (A1, A2, and A3) according to their spectral contents, and a...

The identification of sleep stages is essential in the diagnostics of sleep disorders, among which obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most prevalent. However, manual scoring of sleep stages is time-consuming, subjective, and costly. To overc...
BACKGROUND: Polysomnography (PSG) is not recommended as a diagnostic tool in insomnia. However, this consensual approach might be tempered in the light of two ongoing transformations in sleep research: big data and artificial intelligence (AI).
BACKGROUND: Sleep is a complex and dynamic biological process characterized by different sleep patterns. Comprehensive sleep monitoring and analysis using multivariate polysomnography (PSG) records has achieved significant efforts to prevent sleep-re...
Automated sleep stage scoring for mice is in high demand for sleep research, since manual scoring requires considerable human expertise and efforts. The existing automated scoring methods do not provide the scoring accuracy required for practical use...
OBJECTIVE: Currently, the automatic sleep staging methods mainly face two problems: the first problem is that although the algorithms which use electroencephalogram (EEG) signals perform well, acquiring EEG signals is complicated and uncomfortable; t...
