[Classification of human sleep stages based on EEG processing using hidden Markov models].
The goal of this work was to describe an automated system for classification of human sleep stages. Classification of sleep stages is an important problem of diagnosis and treatment of human sleep disorders. The developed classification method is based on calculation of characteristics of the main sleep rhythms. It uses hidden Markov models. The method is highly accurate and provides reliable identification of the main stages of sleep. The results of automatic classification are in good agreement with the results of sleep stage identification performed by an expert somnologist using Rechtschaffen and Kales rules. This substantiates the applicability of the developed classification system to clinical diagnosis.
