AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies cannot achieve non-invasive, low-cost, repeatable, and accurate prediction of individual brain age, nor can they effectively assess the synergistic changes in brain function and structure, especially in sleep disorders where dynamic monitoring and intervention effect evaluation are lacking.

Method used

Sleep EEG signals were collected using a polysomnography system. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) and bidirectional long short-term memory networks (Bi-LSTM) were combined to extract features through continuous wavelet transform (CWT), and a deep learning model was constructed. Combined with Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression, brain age prediction and correlation of brain structural aging characteristics were achieved, and the treatment effect of sleep disorders was dynamically monitored.

🎯Benefits of technology

It achieves non-invasive, low-cost, and highly accurate individual brain age estimation, filling the technological gap in individual-level sleep EEG brain age prediction. It can dynamically monitor the effect of sleep disorders on brain age improvement and is suitable for primary healthcare institutions.
