Using hidden Markov models for sleep disordered breathing identification
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work, an automatic diagnosis system based on Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) is proposed to help clinicians in the diagnosis of sleep apnea syndrome. Our system offers the advantage of being based on solid probabilistic principles rather than a predefined set of rules. Conventional and new simulated annealing based methods for the training of HMMs are incorporated. The inference method of this system translates parameter values into interpretations of physiological and pathophysiological states. The interpretation is extended to sequences of states in time to obtain a state-space trajectory. Some of the measurements of the respiratory activity issued by the technique of polysomnography (brain activity, respiratory activity, oxygen levels, and cardiac activity) are considered for off-line and on-line detection of the different sleep apnea syndromes: obstructive, central and hypopnea. Experimental results using respiratory clinical data and some future perspectives of our work are presented.

Due to the effective role of Markov models in customer relationship management (CRM), there is a lack of comprehensive literature review which contains all related literatures. In this paper the focus is on academic databases to find all the articles that had been published in 2011 and earlier. One hundred articles were identified and reviewed to find direct relevance for applying Markov models...

متن کاملSleep and sleep disordered breathing in hospitalized patients.
Sleep is a fundamental physiological process necessary for recovery from acute illness. Unfortunately for hospitalized patients, sleep is often short, fragmented, and poor in quality, and may be associated with adverse outcomes including inpatient delirium. Many factors contribute to poor sleep in the hospital setting, including preexisting sleep deprivation, sleep disordered breathing, environ...
