A neuromorphic network composed of silver nanowires coated with TiO is found to show certain parallels with neural networks in nature such as biological brains. Owing to the memristive properties emerging at nanowire-to-nanowire contacts, where the A...
Studies from the literature show that the prevalence of sleep disorder in children is far higher than that in adults. Although much research effort has been made on sleep stage classification for adults, children have significantly different characte...
OBJECTIVES: Sleep disturbances are common in people with dementia and increase with the severity of the disease. Sleep disturbances are complex and caused by several factors and are difficult to treat. There is a need for more robust and systematic s...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of a social robot intervention on sleep and motor activity in nursing home residents living with dementia and chronic pain.
Following prolonged swimming, cycle between active swimming bouts and inactive quiescent bouts. Swimming is exercise for and here we suggest that inactive bouts are a recovery state akin to fatigue. It is known that cGMP-dependent kinase (PKG) acti...
OBJECTIVE: Sleep quality has a significant impact on human mental and physical health. The detection of sleep-wake states is thus of paramount importance in the study of sleep. The gold standard method for sleep-wake classification is multi-sensor-ba...
Recently, functional network connectivity (FNC) has been extended from static to dynamic analysis to explore the time-varying functional organization of brain networks. Nowadays, a majority of dynamic FNC (dFNC) analysis frameworks identified recurri...
OBJECTIVE: Automatic sleep stage scoring is of great importance for investigating sleep architecture during infancy. In this work, we introduce a novel multichannel approach based on deep learning networks and hidden Markov models (HMM) to improve th...
BACKGROUND: Estimation of sleep parameters by wrist actigraphy is highly dependent on performance of the interpretative algorithm (IA) that converts movement data into sleep/wake scores.

Snoring is a typical characteristic of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and can be used for its diagnosis. The purpose of this paper is to develop an automatic snoring detection algorithm for classifying snore and non-snore sound seg...
