ADAPTIVE NEURO-FUZZY INFERENCE SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATIC SLEEP MULTISTAGE LEVEL SCORING EMPLOYING EEG, EOG, AND EMG EXTRACTED FEATURES

摘要

A new system for sleep multistage level scoring by employing extracted features from twenty five polysomnographic recording is presented. For the new system, an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is developed for each sleep stage. Initially, three types of electrophysiological signals including electroencephalogram (EEG), electrooculogram (EOG), and electromyogram (EMG) were collected from twenty five healthy subjects. The input pattern used for training the ANFIS subsystem is a set of extracted features based on the entropy measure which characterize the recorded signals. Finally an output selection subsystem is utilized to provide the appropriate sleep stage according to the ANFIS stage subsystems outputs. The developed system was able to provide an acceptable estimation for six sleep stages with an average accuracy of about 76.43% which confirmed its ability for multistage sleep level scoring based on the extracted features from the EEG, EOG and EMG signals compared to other approaches.
