Dynamics of Snoring Sounds and Its Connection with Obstructive Sleep Apnea [PDF]
Snoring is extremely common in the general population and when irregular may indicate the presence of obstructive sleep apnea. We analyze the overnight sequence of wave packets --- the snore sound --- recorded during full polysomnography in patients referred to the sleep laboratory due to suspected obstructive sleep apnea.

Pavlok-Nudge: A Feedback Mechanism for Atomic Behaviour Modification with Snoring Usecase [PDF]
This paper proposes an atomic behaviour intervention strategy using Pavlok device. Pavlok utilises beeps, vibration and shocks as a mode of aversion technique to help individuals with behaviour modification. While the device can be useful in certain periodic daily life situations, like alarms and exercise notifications, the device relies on manual ...
