Classifying sleep states using persistent homology and Markov chain: a Pilot Study [PDF]
Obstructive sleep Apnea (OSA) is a form of sleep disordered breathing characterized by frequent episodes of upper airway collapse during sleep. Pediatric OSA occurs in 1-5% of children and can related to other serious health conditions such as high blood pressure, behavioral issues, or altered growth.

Sleep Apnea Detection Based on Thoracic and Abdominal Movement Signals of Wearable Piezo-Electric Bands [PDF]
Physiologically, the thoracic (THO) and abdominal (ABD) movement signals, captured using wearable piezo-electric bands, provide information about various types of apnea, including central sleep apnea (CSA) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the use of piezo-electric wearables in detecting sleep apnea events has been seldom explored in the ...

Background Chronic insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea are both common sleep disorders. Chronic insomnia is thought to result from stress-related physiologic hyperarousal (somatic arousal) that makes it difficult for an individual to fall or stay asleep.

SimuSOE: A Simulated Snoring Dataset for Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome Evaluation during Wakefulness [PDF]
Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) is a prevalent chronic breathing disorder caused by upper airway obstruction. Previous studies advanced OSAHS evaluation through machine learning-based systems trained on sleep snoring or speech signal datasets.

Adaptive detection and severity level characterization algorithm for Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) via oximetry signal analysis [PDF]
In this paper, an abstract definition and formal specification is presented for the task of adaptive-threshold OSAHS events detection and severity characterization. Specifically, a low-level pseudocode is designed for the algorithm of raw oximetry signal pre-processing, calculation of the 'drop' and 'rise' frames in the related time series, detection ...

Prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in polycystic ovary syndrome
Background: There are many risk factors for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) which is a relatively widespread and chronic sleep problem that is recognized by recurrent partial or total obstruction in upper airway during sleep leading to ...

Fusion of Millimeter-wave Radar and Pulse Oximeter Data for Low-burden Diagnosis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome [PDF]
Objective: The aim of the study is to develop a novel method for improved diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) in clinical or home settings, with the focus on achieving diagnostic performance comparable to the gold-standard polysomnography (PSG) with significantly reduced monitoring burden.
