AI vs Humans for the diagnosis of sleep apnea [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for diagnosing sleep obstructive apnea (OSA). It allows monitoring of breathing events throughout the night. The detection of these events is usually done by trained sleep experts. However, this task is tedious, highly time-consuming and subject to important inter-scorer variability.

Thermal Imaging and Radar for Remote Sleep Monitoring of Breathing and Apnea [PDF]
arXivPolysomnography (PSG), the current gold standard method for monitoring and detecting sleep disorders, is cumbersome and costly. At-home testing solutions, known as home sleep apnea testing (HSAT), exist. However, they are contact-based, a feature which limits the ability of some patient populations to tolerate testing and discourages widespread ...

Sensor Fusion using Backward Shortcut Connections for Sleep Apnea Detection in Multi-Modal Data [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Sleep apnea is a common respiratory disorder characterized by breathing pauses during the night. Consequences of untreated sleep apnea can be severe. Still, many people remain undiagnosed due to shortages of hospital beds and trained sleep technicians. To assist in the diagnosis process, automated detection methods are being developed.

Higher Blood Lactate with Prolongation of Underwater Section in Submaximal Front-Crawl Swimming
SportsThe underwater phase (UP) is highly important for overall swimming performance in most swimming events. However, the metabolic effects of the prolonged UP remain unclear. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to compare the blood lactate response

MobileNetV2: A lightweight classification model for home-based sleep apnea screening [PDF]
arXivThis study proposes a novel lightweight neural network model leveraging features extracted from electrocardiogram (ECG) and respiratory signals for early OSA screening. ECG signals are used to generate feature spectrograms to predict sleep stages, while respiratory signals are employed to detect sleep-related breathing abnormalities.
