Robust, automated sleep scoring by a compact neural network with distributional shift correction.

ABSTRACT: Studying the biology of sleep requires the accurate assessment of the state of experimental subjects, and manual analysis of relevant data is a major bottleneck. Recently, deep learning applied to electroencephalogram and electromyogram data has shown great promise as a sleep scoring method, approaching the limits of inter-rater reliability. As with any machine learning algorithm, the inputs to a sleep scoring classifier are typically standardized in order to remove distributional shift caused by variability in the signal collection process. However, in scientific data, experimental manipulations introduce variability that should not be removed. For example, in sleep scoring, the fraction of time spent in each arousal state can vary between control and experimental subjects. We introduce a standardization method, mixture z-scoring, that preserves this crucial form of distributional shift. Using both a simulated experiment and mouse in vivo data, we demonstrate that a common standardization method used by state-of-the-art sleep scoring algorithms introduces systematic bias, but that mixture z-scoring does not. We present a free, open-source user interface that uses a compact neural network and mixture z-scoring to allow for rapid sleep scoring with accuracy that compares well to contemporary methods. This work provides a set of computational tools for the robust automation of sleep scoring.

Project description:Background: Performance of wrist actigraphy in assessing sleep not only depends on the sensor technology of the actigraph hardware but also on the attributes of the interpretative algorithm (IA). The objective of our research was to improve assessment of sleep quality, relative to existing IAs, through development of a novel IA using deep learning methods, utilizing as input activity count and heart rate variability (HRV) metrics of different window length (number of epochs of data). Methods: Simultaneously recorded polysomnography (PSG) and wrist actigraphy data of 222 participants were utilized. Classic deep learning models were applied to: (a) activity count alone (without HRV), (b) activity count + HRV (30-s window), (c) activity count + HRV (3-min window), and (d) activity count + HRV (5-min window) to ascertain the best set of inputs. A novel deep learning model (Haghayegh Algorithm, HA), founded on best set of inputs, was developed, and its sleep scoring performance was then compared with the most popular University of California San Diego (UCSD) and Actiwatch proprietary IAs. Results: Activity count combined with HRV metrics calculated per 5-min window produced highest agreement with PSG. HA showed 84.5% accuracy (5.3-6.2% higher than comparator IAs), 89.5% sensitivity (6.2% higher than UCSD IA and 6% lower than Actiwatch proprietary IA), 70.0% specificity (8.2-34.3% higher than comparator IAs), and 58.7% Kappa agreement (16-23% higher than comparator IAs) in detecting sleep epochs. HA did not differ significantly from PSG in deriving sleep parameters-sleep efficiency, total sleep time, sleep onset latency, and wake after sleep onset; moreover, bias and mean absolute error of the HA model in estimating them was less than the comparator IAs. HA showed, respectively, 40.9% and 54.0% Kappa agreement with PSG in detecting rapid and non-rapid eye movement (REM and NREM) epochs. Conclusions: The HA model simultaneously incorporating activity count and HRV metrics calculated per 5-min window demonstrates significantly better sleep scoring performance than existing popular IAs.
