Automatic Sleep Stage Detection Based on HRV Spectrum Analysis

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution › peer-review

Abstract

In this research proposes and validates an algorithm that uses only electrocardiogram (ECG) for automatic sleep stage detection. Polysomnography (PSG) is the conventional method of sleep stage monitoring. This method requires many sensors, complex procedure, expensive and need to implement in the special laboratory. The ECG signal measurement are much easier to conduct and record. This would make it possible for realizing the non-intrusive method, home-diagnostic systems, reducing a lot of effort and cost. Therefore, an automatic sleep stage detection algorithm that uses only the features of Heart Rate Variability (HRV) spectrum analysis, which recorded via ECG is proposed. The features were classified using the Decision-Tree-Based Support Vector Machines (DTB-SVM) to distinguish Wake, Light (NREM-1 and NREM-2), Deep (NREM-3 and NREM-4) and REM of the sleep stages. The classification accuracy of the proposed algorithm was 89.2%. The result showed that the proposed algorithm has good accuracy for automatic sleep stage detection and it can become a great foundation for future research.
