Abstract
Nocturnal sleep is the main time to recover energy and repair cells in the human body. Hence, the detection of insomnia and the assessment of the quality of sleep are important in determining patients’ states of health so that appropriate therapies can be administered. Many previous studies often evaluated sleep quality by analyzing positive and negative emotions; in this study, we developed a new method for evaluating the quality of sleep based on detecting the number of emotional arousal epochs during sleep. Emotional arousal epochs (each contains a 10-second segment of data) were extracted based on analyzing the standard epochs of emotional data. The densities of emotional arousal epochs were correlated with the states of the patient’s health, and the results were compared to develop a table of relationships for the assessment of the quality of sleep. The densities of emotional arousal epochs were correlated with the states of the patient’s health, and the results were compared to develop a table of relationships for the assessment of the quality of sleep. The new method has proven effective when integrated into an automatic identification system; this system identifies emotional segments and classifies sleep quality based on the intensity of emotional epochs in each sleep cycle with an average accuracy of 87.5%.
