Refinement Process

Automatic sleep stage classification of multi-channel sleep signals can help clinicians efficiently evaluate an individual’s sleep quality and assist in diagnosing a possible sleep disorder. To obtain accurate sleep classification results, the processing flow of results from signal preprocessing and machine-learning-based classification is typically employed. These classification results are refined based on sleep transition rules. Neural networks—i.e., machine learning algorithms—are powerful at solving classification problems. Some methods apply them to the first two processes above; however, the refinement process continues to be based on traditional methods. In this study, the sleep stage refinement process was incorporated into the neural network model to form real end-to-end processing. In addition, for multi-channel signals, the multi-branch convolutional neural network was combined with a proposed residual attention method. This approach further improved the model classification accuracy. The proposed method was evaluated on the Sleep-EDF Expanded Database (Sleep-EDFx) and University College Dublin Sleep Apnea Database (UCDDB). It achieved respective accuracy rates of 85.7% and 79.4%. The results also showed that sleep stage refinement based on a neural network is more effective than the traditional refinement method. Moreover, the proposed residual attention method was determined to have a more robust channel–information fusion ability than the respective average and concatenation methods.

Manual classification of sleep stage is a time-consuming but necessary step in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders, and its automation has been an area of active study. The previous works have shown that low dimensional fast Fourier transform (FFT) features and many machine learning algorithms have been applied. In this paper, we demonstrate utilization of features extracted from EEG signals via FFT to improve the performance of automated sleep stage classification through machine learning methods. Unlike previous works using FFT, we incorporated thousands of FFT features in order to classify the sleep stages into 2–6 classes. Using the expanded version of Sleep-EDF dataset with 61 recordings, our method outperformed other state-of-the art methods. This result indicates that high dimensional FFT features in combination with a simple feature selection is effective for the improvement of automated sleep stage classification.

AbstractMany systems are developed for automatic sleep stage classification. However, nearly all models are based on handcrafted features. Because of the large feature space, there are so many features that feature selection should be used. Meanwhile, designing handcrafted features is a difficult and time-consuming task because the feature designing needs domain knowledge of experienced experts. Results vary when different sets of features are chosen to identify sleep stages. Additionally, many features that we may be unaware of exist. However, these features may be important for sleep stage classification. Therefore, a new sleep stage classification system, which is based on the complex-valued convolutional neural network (CCNN), is proposed in this study. Unlike the existing sleep stage methods, our method can automatically extract features from raw electroencephalography data and then classify sleep stage based on the learned features. Additionally, we also prove that the decision boundaries for the real and imaginary parts of a complex-valued convolutional neuron intersect orthogonally. The classification performances of handcrafted features are compared with those of learned features via CCNN. Experimental results show that the proposed method is comparable to the existing methods. CCNN obtains a better classification performance and considerably faster convergence speed than convolutional neural network. Experimental results also show that the proposed method is a useful decision-support tool for automatic sleep stage classification.

Purpose: Sleep is one of the necessities of the body, such as eating, drinking, etc., that affects different aspects of human life. Sleep monitoring and sleep stage classification play an important role in the diagnosis of sleeprelated diseases and neurological disorders. Empirically, classification of sleep stages is a time-consuming, tedious, and complex task, which heavily depends on the experience of the experts. As a result, there is a crucial need for an automatic efficient sleep staging system. Materials and Methods: This study develops a 13-layer 1D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) using singlechannel Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal for extracting features automatically and classifying the sleep stages. To overcome the negative effect of an imbalance dataset, we have used the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE). In our study, the single-channel EEG signal is given to a 1D CNN, without any feature extraction/selection processes. This deep network can self-learn the discriminative features from the EEG signal. Results: Applying the proposed method to sleep-EDF dataset resulted in overall accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and Precision of 94.09%, 74.73%, 96.43%, and 71.02%, respectively, for classifying five sleep stages. Using single-channel EEG and providing a network with fewer trainable parameters than most of the available deep learning-based methods are the main advantages of the proposed method. Conclusion: In this study, a 13-layer 1D CNN model was proposed for sleep stage classification. This model has an end-to-end complete architecture and does not require any separate feature extraction/selection and classification stages. Having a low number of network parameters and layers while still having high classification accuracy, is the main advantage of the proposed method over most of the previous deep learning-based approaches.

Abstract Introduction Although polysomnography (PSG) remains the gold standard for sleep assessment in a lab setting, non-EEG signals such as respiration and motion are directly affected by sleep stages and can be used for sleep stage prediction. Importantly, these signals can be obtained in a low-cost and unobtrusive manner, allowing for large scale and longitudinal data collection in a home environment. The Circadia C100 System (FDA 510(k) clearance expected Q1 2020) is a novel ‘nearable’ device that uses radar for contactless monitoring of respiration and motion. The current study aims to validate the performance of the associated sleep analysis algorithm. Methods A total of 41 nights of sleep data were recorded from 33 healthy participants using the device, alongside PSG. Data were recorded both in a sleep lab and home environment. PSG data were scored by RPSGT-certified technicians. Respiration and movement features were extracted, and machine learning algorithms were developed to perform sleep stage classification and predict sleep metrics. Algorithms were trained and validated on PSG data using cross-validation. Results An epoch-by-epoch true positive rate of 56.2%, 79.4%, 55.5% and 72.6% was found for ‘Wake’, ‘REM’, ‘Light’ and ‘Deep’ respectively. No statistical differences in performance were found between home-recorded and lab-recorded contactless data. Mean absolute error of total sleep time (TST), wake after sleep onset (WASO), and sleep efficiency (SE) was 13.2 minutes, 11.3 minutes and 3%, respectively. The contactless monitor was found to outperform both medical grade and clinical grade actigraphy based devices: The Philips Actiwatch Spectrum Plus and the Fitbit Alta HR. Conclusion Current results are encouraging and suggest that the contactless monitor could be used for long-term sleep assessment and continuous evaluation of sleep therapy outcomes. Further clinical validation work is ongoing in subjects diagnosed with sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea. Support -

Sleep disorder is a serious public health problem. Unobtrusive home sleep quality monitoring system can better open the way of sleep disorder-related diseases screening and health monitoring. In this work, a sleep stage classification algorithm based on multiscale residual convolutional neural network (MRCNN) was proposed to detect the characteristics of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals detected by wearable systems and classify sleep stages. EEG signals were analyzed in each epoch of every 30 seconds, and then 5-class sleep stage classification, wake (W), rapid eye movement sleep (REM), and nonrapid eye movement sleep (NREM) including N1, N2, and N3 stages was outputted. Good results (accuracy rate of 92.06% and 91.13%, Cohen’s kappa of 0.7360 and 0.7001) were achieved with 5-fold cross-validation and independent subject cross-validation, respectively, which performed on European Data Format (EDF) dataset containing 197 whole-night polysomnographic sleep recordings. Compared with several representative deep learning methods, this method can easily obtain sleep stage information from single-channel EEG signals without specialized feature extraction, which is closer to clinical application. Experiments based on CinC2018 dataset also proved that the method has a good performance on large dataset and can provide support for sleep disorder-related diseases screening and health surveillance based on automatic sleep staging.
