FASTER: an unsupervised fully automated sleep staging method for mice
نویسندگان
چکیده
Identifying the stages of sleep, or sleep staging, is an unavoidable step in sleep research and typically requires visual inspection of electroencephalography (EEG) and electromyography (EMG) data. Currently, scoring is slow, biased and prone to error by humans and thus is the most important bottleneck for large-scale sleep research in animals. We have developed an unsupervised, fully automated sleep staging method for mice that allows less subjective and high-throughput evaluation of sleep. Fully Automated Sleep sTaging method via EEG/EMG Recordings (FASTER) is based on nonparametric density estimation clustering of comprehensive EEG/EMG power spectra. FASTER can accurately identify sleep patterns in mice that have been perturbed by drugs or by genetic modification of a clock gene. The overall accuracy is over 90% in every group. 24-h data are staged by a laptop computer in 10 min, which is faster than an experienced human rater. Dramatically improving the sleep staging process in both quality and throughput FASTER will open the door to quantitative and comprehensive animal sleep research.

Computer-assisted Sleep Staging Based on Segmentation and Clustering
In this paper, we present a method that can be used to automatically classify sleep states in an all-night polysomnogram (PSG) to generate a hypnogram for the assesment of sleep-related disorders. The method is based on ideas of segmentation and classification (clustering) using sleep related features. Segments are clustered to generate groups of similar patterns that can subsequently be labele...

BACKGROUND Recently, there has been increasing interest in the development of wireless home sleep staging systems that allow the patient to be monitored remotely while remaining in the comfort of their home. However, transmitting large amount of Polysomnography (PSG) data over the Internet is an important issue needed to be considered. In this work, we aim to reduce the amount of PSG data which...

متن کاملAutomated Sleep Staging Technique Based on the Empirical Mode Decomposition Algorithm: a Preliminary Study
An automatic sleep staging method is proposed to score wakefulness and three nonrapid eye movement (NREM) stages S1, S2 and S3, based on the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) algorithm. Patients with sleep disorders were tested using this method. Good agreements between manual and automatic staging results were achieved in terms of their Cohen's Kappa value.

BACKGROUND Alterations of sleep duration and architecture have been associated with increased morbidity and mortality, and specifically linked to chronic cardiovascular disease and psychiatric disorders, such as type 2 diabetes or depression. Measurement of sleep quality to assist in the diagnosis or treatment of these diseases is not routinely performed due to the complexity and cost of conven...
