  Sleep apnea is a common yet severely under-diagnosed sleep related disorder. Unattended sleep monitoring at home with low-cost sensors can be leveraged for condition detection, and Machine Learning offers a generalized solution for this task. However, patient characteristics, lack of sufficient training data, and other factors can imply a domain shift between training and end-user data; and reduced task performance. In this work, we address this issue with the aim to achieve personalization based on the patient’s needs. We present an unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) solution with the constraint that labeled source data are not directly available. Instead, a classifier trained on the source data is provided. Our solution iteratively labels target data sub-regions based on classifier beliefs, and trains new classifiers from the expanding dataset. Experiments with sleep monitoring datasets and various sensors show that our solution outperforms the classifier trained on the source domain, with a kappa coefficient improvement from 0.012 to 0.242. Additionally, we apply our solution to digit classification DA between three well-established datasets, to investigate its generalizability, and allow for related work comparisons. Even without direct access to the source data, it outperforms several well-established UDA methods in these datasets.

  Good training data is a prerequisite to develop useful Machine Learning applications. However, in many domains existing data sets cannot be shared due to privacy regulations (e.g., from medical studies). This work investigates a simple yet unconventional approach for anonymized data synthesis to enable third parties to benefit from such anonymized data. We explore the feasibility of learning implicitly from visually unrealistic, task-relevant stimuli, which are synthesized by exciting the neurons of a trained deep neural network. As such, neuronal excitation can be used to generate synthetic stimuli. The stimuli data is used to train new classification models. Furthermore, we extend this framework to inhibit representations that are associated with specific individuals. Extensive comparative empirical investigation shows that different algorithms trained on the stimuli are able to generalize successfully on the same task as the original model.

  Good training data is a prerequisite to develop useful Machine Learning applications. However, in many domains existing data sets cannot be shared due to privacy regulations (e.g., from medical studies). This work investigates a simple yet unconventional approach for anonymized data synthesis to enable third parties to benefit from such anonymized data. We explore the feasibility of learning implicitly from visually unrealistic, task-relevant stimuli, which are synthesized by exciting the neurons of a trained deep neural network. As such, neuronal excitation can be used to generate synthetic stimuli. The stimuli data is used to train new classification models. Furthermore, we extend this framework to inhibit representations that are associated with specific individuals. We use sleep monitoring data from both an open and a large closed clinical study, and Electroencephalogram sleep stage classification data, to evaluate whether (1) end-users can create and successfully use customized classification models, and (2) the identity of participants in the study is protected. Extensive comparative empirical investigation shows that different algorithms trained on the stimuli are able to generalize successfully on the same task as the original model. Architectural and algorithmic similarity between new and original models play an important role in performance. For similar architectures, the performance is close to that of using the original data (e.g., Accuracy difference of 0.56%-3.82%, Kappa coefficient difference of 0.02-0.08). Further experiments show that the stimuli can provide state-ofthe-art resilience against adversarial association and membership inference attacks.

Machine learning for sleep apnea detection with unattended sleep monitoring at home. ACM Transactions on Computing for Healthcare (HEALTH). ISSN 2691-1957. 2(2). doi: 10.1145/3433987. Vis sammendrag

  Sleep apnea is a common and strongly under-diagnosed severe sleep-related respiratory disorder with periods of disrupted or reduced breathing during sleep. To diagnose sleep apnea, sleep data are collected with either polysomnography or polygraphy and scored by a sleep expert. We investigate in this work the use of supervised machine learning to automate the analysis of polygraphy data from the A3 study containing more than 7,400 hours of sleep monitoring data from 579 patients. We conduct a systematic comparative study of classification performance and resource use with different combinations of 27 classifiers and four sleep signals. The classifiers achieve up to 0.8941 accuracy (kappa: 0.7877) when using all four signal types simultaneously and up to 0.8543 accuracy (kappa: 0.7080) with only one signal, i.e., oxygen saturation. Methods based on deep learning outperform other methods by a large margin. All deep learning methods achieve nearly the same maximum classification performance even when they have very different architectures and sizes. When jointly accounting for classification performance, resource consumption and the ability to achieve with less training data high classification performance, we find that convolutional neural networks substantially outperform the other classifiers.

  We report results and experience from a clinical evaluation of a low-cost strain gauge breathing sensor for sleep apnea detection. We collected from 34 individuals 57 nights of unattended sleep monitoring data at home with the certified Type 3 monitor Nox-T3 and the Flow strain gauge sensor from SweetZpot. The quality of the Flow data does not match the quality of the Nox-T3 data due to the much simpler build of the Flow sensor and issues during data acquisition. The Flow data can still be used to accurately discriminate between normal and disrupted breathing. With appropriate data pre-processing, we achieve a mean breath detection sensitivity of 97.2% and positive prediction value of 94.2%.

  Rationale: Sleep apnea (SA) is highly prevalent in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and both conditions are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Objectives: To determine the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on AF burden. Methods: This open-label, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial included patients with paroxysmal AF and moderate to severe SA (apnea–hypopnea index ⩾15). A computerized system randomized eligible patients (1:1) to 5 months’ treatment with CPAP plus usual care (CPAP, n = 55) or usual care alone (control, n = 54). The outcome assessment was blinded. The planned primary outcome was the difference between CPAP treatment and control groups in change of AF burden (percentage of time in AF) as measured by implantable loop recorder. Measurements and Main Results: A total of 579 patients with paroxysmal AF had respiratory polygraphy, of whom 244 (42%) had moderate to severe SA. Of these, 158 (65%) participated in the CPAP run-in period, of whom 39 (25%) patients did not tolerate the treatment. A total of 108 patients were available for the primary analysis. The mean time in AF decreased from 5.6% at baseline to 4.1% during the last 3 months of CPAP intervention and from 5.0% to 4.3% in the control group. The adjusted between-group difference at follow-up was −0.63 (95% confidence interval, −2.55 to 1.30) percentage points (P = 0.52). Seven serious adverse events (13%) occurred in the CPAP group, and two (4%) occurred in the control group. Conclusions: In patients with paroxysmal AF and SA, treatment with CPAP did not result in a statistically significant reduction in the burden of AF.Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT02727192).
