Sleep stages have been useful indicator to check a person's comfortableness in a sleep, But the traditional method of scoring sleep stages with polysomnography based on the integrated analysis of the electroencephalogram(EEG), electrooculogram(EOG), electrocardiogram(ECG), and electromyogram(EMG) is too restrictive to take a comfortable sleep for the participants, While the sympathetic nervous system is predominant during a wakefulness, the parasympathetic nervous system is more active during a sleep, Cardiovascular function is controlled by this autonomic nervous system, So, we have interpreted the heart rate variability(HRV) among sleep stages to find a simple method of classifying sleep stages, Six healthy male college students participated, and 12 night sleeps were recorded in this research, Sleep stages based on the "Standard scoring system for sleep stage" were automatically classified with polysomnograph by measuring EEG, EOG, ECG, and EMG(chin and leg) for the six participants during sleeping, To extract only the ECG signals from the polysomnograph and to interpret the HRV, a Sleep Data Acquisition/Analysis System was devised in this research, The power spectrum of HRV was divided into three ranges; low frequency(LF), medium frequency(MF), and high frequency(HF), It showed that, the LF/HF ratio of the Stage W(Wakefulness) was 325% higher than that of the Stage 2(p＜.05), 628% higher than that of the Stage 3(p＜.001), and 800% higher than that of the Stage 4(p＜.001), Moreover, this ratio of the Stage 4 was 427% lower than that of the Stage REM (rapid eye movement) (p＜.05) and 418% lower than that of the Stage l(p＜.05), respectively, It was observed that the LF/HF ratio decreased monotonously as the sleep stage changes from the Stage W, Stage REM, Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3, to Stage 4, While the difference of the MF/(LF+HF) ratio among sleep Stages was not significant, it was higher in the Stage REM and Stage 3 than that of in the other sleep stages in view of descriptive statistic analysis for the sample group.

In this paper, we designed a multimodal bio-signal measurement system to observe changes in the brain nervous system and vascular system during sleep. Changes in the nervous system and the cerebral blood flow system in the brain during sleep induce a unique correlation between the changes in the nervous system and the blood flow system. Therefore, it is necessary to simultaneously observe changes in the brain nervous system and changes in the blood flow system to observe the sleep state. To measure the change of the nervous system, EEG, EOG and EMG signal used for the sleep stage analysis were designed. We designed a system for measuring cerebral blood flow changes using functional near-infrared spectroscopy. Among the various imaging methods to measure blood flow and metabolism, it is easy to measure simultaneously with EEG signal and it can be easily designed for miniaturization of equipment. The sleep stage was analyzed by the measured data, and the change of the cerebral blood flow was confirmed by the change of the sleep stage.

This paper presents a methodology for classifying sleep disturbance using electroencephalogram (EEG) signal at sleep stage 2 and principal component analysis. For extracting initial features, fast Fourier transforms(FFT) were carried out to remove some noise from EEG signal at sleep stage 2. In the second phase, we used principal component analysis to reduction from EEG signal that was removed some noise by FFT to 5 features. In the final phase, 5 features were used as inputs of NEWFM to get performance results. The proposed methodology shows that accuracy rate, specificity rate, and sensitivity were all 100%.

EEG(electroencephalogram) are measured to accurately determine the level of sleep in various sleep examinations. In general, measurements are more accurate as the number of sensor channels increases. EEG can interfere with sleep by attaching electrodes to the skin when measuring. It is necessary for self sleep care to select the minimum number of EEG channels that take into account both the user's discomfort and the accuracy of the measurement data. In this paper, we proposed a sleep stage analysis model based on machine learning and conducted experiments for using from one channel to four channels. We obtained estimation accuracy for sleep stage as following 82.28% for one channel, 85.77% for two channels, 80.33% for three channels and 68.87% for four channels. Although the measurement location is limited, the results of this study compare the accuracy according to the number of channels and provide information on the selection of channel numbers in the EEG sleep analysis.

The aim of this study is to design a classifier for sleep stage analysis and select important feature set which shows sleep stage well based on physiological signals during sleep. Sleep has a significant effect on the quality of human life. When people undergo lack of sleep or sleep-related disease, they are likely to reduced concentration and cognitive impairment affects, etc. Therefore, there are a lot of research to analyze sleep stage. In this study, after acquisition physiological signals during sleep, we do pre-processing such as filtering for extracting features. The features are used input for the new combination algorithm using genetic algorithm(GA) and neural networks(NN). The algorithm selects features which have high weights to classify sleep stage. As the result of this study, accuracy of the algorithm is up to 90.26% with electroencephalography(EEG) signal and electrocardiography(ECG) signal, and selecting features are alpha and delta frequency band power of EEG signal and standard deviation of all normal RR intervals(SDNN) of ECG signal. We checked the selected features are well shown that they have important information to classify sleep stage as doing repeating the algorithm. This research could use for not only diagnose disease related to sleep but also make a guideline of sleep stage analysis.

Objectives: Stage 1 sleep provides important information regarding interpretation of nocturnal polysomnography, particularly sleep onset. It is a short transition period from wakeful consciousness to sleep. The lack of prominent sleep events characterizing stage 1 sleep is a major obstacle in automatic sleep stage scoring. In this study, utilization of simultaneous EEG and EOG processing and analyses to detect stage 1 sleep automatically were attempted. Methods: Relative powers of the alpha waves and the theta waves were calculated from spectral estimation. A relative power of alpha waves less than 50% or relative power of theta waves more than 23% was regarded as stage 1 sleep. SEM(slow eye movement) was defined as the duration of both-eye movement ranging from 1.5 to 4 seconds, and was also regarded as stage 1 sleep. If one of these three criteria was met, the epoch was regarded as stage 1 sleep. Results were compared to the manual rating results done by two polysomnography experts. Results: A total of 169 epochs were analyzed. The agreement rate for stage 1 sleep between automatic detection and manual scoring was 79.3% and Cohen’s Kappa was 0.586 (p<0.01). A significant portion (32%) of automatically detected stage 1 sleep included SEM. Conclusion: Generally, digitally-scored sleep staging shows accuracy up to 70%. Considering potential difficulty in stage 1 sleep scoring, accuracy of 79.3% in this study seems to be strong enough. Simultaneous analysis of EOG differentiates this study from previous ones which mainly depended on EEG analysis. The issue of close relationship between SEM and stage 1 sleep raised by Kinnari remains a valid one in this study.

Introduction: Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) is used as a way of studying nonlinearity of EEG. In this study, DFA is applied on sleep EEG of normal subjects to look into its nonlinearity in terms of EEG channels and sleep stages. Method: Twelve healthy young subjects (age：$23.8{\pm}2.5$ years old, male：female=7：5) have undergone nocturnal polysomnography (nPSG). EEG from nPSG was classified in terms of its channels and sleep stages and was analyzed by DFA. Scaling exponents (SEs) yielded by DFA were compared using linear mixed model analysis. Results: Scaling exponents (SEs) of sleep EEG were distributed around 1 showing long term temporal correlation and self-similarity. SE of C3 channel was bigger than that of O1 channel. As sleep stage progressed from stage 1 to slow wave sleep, SE increased accordingly. SE of stage REM sleep did not show significant difference when compared with that of stage 1 sleep. Conclusion: SEs of Normal sleep EEG showed nonlinear characteristic with scale-free fluctuation, long-range temporal correlation, self-similarity and self-organized criticality. SE from DFA differentiated sleep stages and EEG channels. It can be a useful tool in the research with sleep EEG.

Insufficient sleep time and bad sleep quality causes many illnesses and it's research became more and more important. The most common method for measuring sleep quality is the polysomnography(PSG). The PSG is a test used to diagnose sleep disorders. The most common PSG data is obtained from the examiner, which attaches several sensors on a body and takes sleep overnight. However, most of the sleep stage classification in PSG are low accuracy of the classification. In this paper, we have studied algorithm for sleep level classification based on machine learning which can replace PSG. EEG, EOG, and EMG channel signals are studied and tested by using CNN algorithm. In order to compensate the performance, a mixed model using both CNN and DNN models is designed and tested for performance.
