[0064] Specifically, a contact-type polysomnography device is used to record electroencephalogram (EEG), electrocardiogram (ECG), and electromyography (EMG), recording the patient's EEG, ECG, and EMG information during sleep.

[0065] The principle is that the electrode attached to the skin transmits bioelectric information to the sensor, and different parts jointly transmit information. The sensor cable writes the signal to the headbox device, and then the analog signal is converted into a digital signal after the amplification, filtering and digitization process through the headbox, and is sent to the fixed station.

The system identifies the pressure on the sensor by detecting the wavelength of the wavelength splitting point of the fiber Bragg grating spectrum signal, and identifies the temperature of the environment where the sensor is located by detecting the center wavelength drift of the fiber Bragg grating spectrum signal. The multi-physiological information of the user when in bed is monitored, including body temperature, respiratory rate, heart rate, out-of-bed state, etc., and has the advantages of simple structure, small size, resistance to electromagnetic interference, low cost, etc.

Because the loss of muscle tone is temporally related to the presence of sleep imagery.

[0072] ② Heart rate decrease: in line with the loss of muscle tone (Herlan A, Ottenbacher J, Schneider J, Riemann D, Feige B.

[0084] The information receiving port is configured to receive the sleep vital sign data of the subject in real time.

[0085] A central computer processing system is configured to: input basic information of a subject and the sleep sign data into a machine learning model, and obtain a stimulation mode and parameters for regulating sleep of the subject through the machine learning model.

[0089] The basic information includes the following indexes: age, gender, height, weight, waist circumference, smoking history, drinking history, disease history, operation history, blood transfusion history, allergy history, long-term medication, family genetic disease.

[0090] The machine learning model is a hybrid deep neural network model, and the hybrid deep neural network model is as shown in Figure 3 The specific structure is as follows:

[0091] An original data extraction layer is used to decode, decompile and disassemble the input original data, and convert them into a data type with stronger readability and easier understanding;

[0092] A feature extraction layer is used to extract features from the processing results of the original data extraction layer;

[0093] A feature vector generation layer is used to generate a plurality of feature vectors by using different algorithms for the existing feature and the discrete feature, respectively, and part of the features are spliced to generate a feature vector together;

[0094] A multi-modal sleep emotion detection layer is used to obtain a judgment result of a sleep emotion of a subject, and a stimulation mode and parameters for regulating sleep of the subject according to the feature vector;

[0095] Among them, as shown in Figure 4 The multi-modal sleep emotion detection layer includes an initial network layer and a final network layer, the initial network layer includes a plurality of DNN networks that are not connected to each other, the feature vectors are independently sent into the initial network layer, the final network layer includes a DNN network structure, the last layer of each DNN network in the initial network layer is fully connected with the first layer of the DNN network in the final network layer, the multi-modal sleep emotion detection layer adopts a front fusion manner to fuse the deep features, and the DNN network structure of the final network layer outputs the judgment result of the sleep emotion of the subject, and the stimulation mode and the parameters for regulating the sleep of the subject.

[0096] Each independent DNN network in the initial network layer is composed of an input layer and several hidden layers. In the DNN network, the neurons in each layer are not connected to each other, and each layer of neurons is only connected to the adjacent front and rear layers, and the layers are fully connected structures. In the final network layer, the DNN network structure is composed of a fusion layer, several hidden layers and an output layer. The output layer has only one neuron, which is responsible for outputting the analysis result.

[0097] The several feature vectors are independently sent to the DNN network of the initial network layer, and the DNN network of the final network layer outputs the judgment result of the sleep emotion of the subject and the stimulation mode and parameters for regulating the sleep of the subject.

[0098] The working process of the above-mentioned hybrid deep neural network model is specifically as follows:

[0099] (1) Executed in the original data extraction layer:

[0100] For all basic information and sleep sign data, the first step is to classify into existing type features (yes / no, normal / abnormal, too high / normal / low, etc. classification variables) and discrete type features (specific numerical values), and then perform decoding, decompilation and disassembly operations on the original data to convert them into data types that are more readable and easier to understand.

[0101] (2) Executed in the feature extraction layer:

[0102] Feature extraction is performed from the converted data. As a preferred way, the specific method of feature extraction can use a CNN model or an RNN model. As a preferred way, examples of sleep sign data and basic information extraction are shown in the following table:

[0103] Table 1: Examples of sleep sign data and basic information feature extraction

[0104]

[0105]

[0106] (3) Executed in the feature vector generation layer:

[0107] The feature information extracted in this embodiment is divided into multiple types, and according to different forms, it can be divided into two categories, namely existing type features and discrete type features.

[0108] Specifically, the method for generating corresponding feature vectors for existing type features and discrete type features is:

[0109] (1) Existing type feature vector generation algorithm

[0110] The generation process of the presence type feature vector is intuitive and simple. First, all the presence type features extracted by the feature extraction layer are combined into a large presence type feature database. Then, it is queried whether the corresponding features of each sample exist in the feature database. If they exist, the feature is assigned a value of 1, otherwise 0. The system generates several presence type feature vectors (for example, 2, including a respiratory rate feature vector and a combined feature vector composed of heart rate features, electrocardiogram features, and body temperature features).

[0111] (2) Discrete feature vector generation algorithm

[0112] The discrete data feature is a combination of a group of very different frequencies, so before generating the feature vector, the data needs to be normalized first. The system uses the linear function normalization (MinMax Scaling) method to normalize the feature frequency data to the range of [0, 1] one by one. The normalization equation is shown in the following formula, where x and y represent the feature data before and after normalization, respectively, and Max and Min represent the maximum and minimum values of the frequency, respectively:

[0113]

[0114] Next, the feature data is respectively clustered by K-means clustering (Reference: I. B. Mohammad, D. Usman. Standardization and its effects on k-means clustering algorithm [J]. Research Journal of Applied Sciences, Engineering and Technology, 2013, 6(17): 3299-3303), to obtain a set of centroids for each type of feature data. The feature data extracted from the sample will be calculated for its distance to different centroids of the corresponding type, and the Euclidean distance calculation formula (as follows) is used for distance calculation, t represents the coordinate dimension of points M and N.

[0115]

[0116] The centroid with the shortest distance is selected, and the length of the vector from the centroid to the current feature point in different dimensions represents the similarity of the data and the centroid in different dimensions. The longer the projection length in one dimension, the lower the similarity of the feature in that dimension, and vice versa. In the system, the projection length 0.4 is taken as the threshold, and the elements in the feature vector corresponding to the features in the dimension with a projection length greater than 0.4 are set to 0, otherwise set to 1, so as to avoid the influence of part of the weakly related features on the subsequent prediction task, and also simplify the calculation amount in the deep learning process.

[0117] (4) The multi-modal sleep emotion detection layer performs:

[0118] The feature vectors generated by the feature vector generation layer are independently sent to the initial network layer composed of multiple DNN networks, and the multi-modal sleep emotion detection layer adopts a front fusion method to fuse the deep features, and outputs the judgment result of the subject's sleep emotion, and the stimulation mode and parameters for regulating the subject's sleep.

[0119] Through the above hybrid deep neural network model, the sleep emotion of the subject can be judged in real time, and the stimulation mode and parameters for regulating the patient's sleep are obtained.

[0120] The judgment of the sleep emotion of the subject through the above hybrid deep neural network model has the following characteristics:

[0121] The embodiment is based on the existing multi-modal DNN (MDNN) model, and part of the features are spliced in the feature vector generation layer through a fuzzy algorithm to generate a feature vector (i.e. fuzzy integral is added),

[0122] There are two special cases when splicing features in the feature vector generation layer:

[0123] (1) When there is an interactive effect between modalities: the combined effect between two modalities is not simply equal to the sum of the effects of single modalities

[0124] (2) When the classification result is not clear: the classification result is not clear, which means that a sample cannot be clearly determined as a positive class or a negative class.

[0125] At this time, we can use a fuzzy integral fusion device (such as Figure 5 ) to effectively fuse the multi-modal results.

[0126] Compared with existing fusion operators, a prominent advantage of fuzzy integration is that it can better reflect the importance of the classifiers corresponding to each modality, and can better represent the interaction between each modality. There are three forms of interaction between general classifiers Di and Dj:

[0127] (1) Negative synergy: If the overall importance of the sub-classifiers Di, Dj is less than the sum of the individual sub-classifiers. In other words, compared with the single classifier Di, Dj, the fusion classifier Ci, Cj cannot improve the classification accuracy of a certain class.

[0128] (2) Positive synergy: If the overall significance of the sub-classifiers Di, Dj to classification is greater than the sum of the individual classifiers. In other words, compared with the single classifier Di, Dj, the fusion classifier Ci, Cj can improve the classification accuracy of a certain class.

[0129] (3) Independency: That is, the influence of the individual classifiers Di, Dj on the classification accuracy is added.

[0130] When there is an interaction between different modalities, the embodiment utilizes the fuzzy measure to represent it. As can be seen from the following Choquet fuzzy integral formula, f is the membership degree of the modality, that is, the performance ability of different modalities on the classifier, multiplied by its measure, and finally summed to obtain the score of the input in this class.

[0131] Let X be an arbitrary set, that is, μ is a fuzzy measure defined on the set X, and f: X→[0, 1] is a non-negative real-valued measurable function defined on X, which sorts the values of the function f according to , and the minimum value of a can be 0, A i represents the set of a i . The Choquet fuzzy integral formula is as follows:

[0132]

[0133] As can be seen from the following fuzzy measure table, if the input is three modalities, the measure not only contains the measure value of all single modalities, but also contains the double modality combination and three modality combination measure. The interaction between the modalities is represented in the measure while representing the importance of the single modality. The fuzzy integral mainly represents the interaction between different modalities through the calculation of the measure. Therefore, the embodiment models the multi-modality fusion by means of the fuzzy system, and utilizes the measure to represent the importance and interaction between the multi-modalities at the same time, and finds the optimal measure calculation method for multi-modality fusion.

[0135]

[0136] In summary, the fuzzy integral added in this embodiment makes it possible to consider the interaction between different data on the basis of two data analysis methods, i.e., the “independent unit system” and “pre-fusion”, because the data are related. The multi-modal measure is formed by weighting and summing the single-modal measure through the lifting degree (Choquet fuzzy integral), and then the multi-modal multi-classifier decision fusion framework is constructed according to the fuzzy measure calculation result. This framework trains and optimizes multiple different types of emotion state basic classifiers for each modality, so as to obtain the decision information of multiple basic classifiers on different modal data. Then, the newly designed multi-basic classifier decision information integration method is used to integrate and calculate the decision information of each modality, providing input information for the subsequent fuzzy measure calculation. This is much better than the existing MDNN model.

[0137] Among them, the “independent unit system” means that “electroencephalogram”, “electromyogram” and “electrocardiogram” are independent, non-interfering and unit systems (because an electrocardiogram contains many contents, such as frequency and waveform, and a premature atrial contraction is F wave and atrial fibrillation is f wave). The “pre-fusion” means that different feature extraction algorithms and classification algorithms are fused in the feature extraction and classification stage of the data set to obtain better data analysis results. The post-fusion algorithm means that multiple classifiers are fused after the feature extraction and classification stage to obtain better classification results.

[0138] In the actual model training and detection process, it is not necessarily possible to ensure that all basic information and sleep sign data can be completely collected. The hybrid deep neural network model in this embodiment also has a proper solution for this situation. Specifically as follows:

[0139] ①Training scheme when feature extraction is incomplete

[0140] The hybrid deep neural network model of this embodiment adopts a multi-modal feature input structure. Each DNN network in the initial network layer is independent of each other and is fused only in the final network layer. This makes it possible to train each independent DNN network in the initial network layer one by one. In the model training process, the 0 vector is not completed for the feature information that fails to be extracted, and the successfully extracted feature vectors of multiple types are input into the corresponding DNN network of the initial network layer for training one by one. Finally, the final network layer is trained on the basis of the training of the entire initial network layer. Such a training strategy makes the system maintain the feature independence to the greatest extent while also reducing the dependence on the simultaneous extraction of all features, and maximizes the use of all extracted feature information.

[0141] ②Test scheme when feature extraction is incomplete

[0142] In the case that the basic information or sleep physical data of the detected subject is not complete, the 0 vector is used for completion, and then all feature vectors are input into the mixed deep neural network model for detection. Because the final output of the initial network corresponding to the 0 vector input only calculates the bias term, the input of the 0 vector has little effect on the final classification result, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the overall detection result.

[0144] The multi-sensory stimulation intervention reinforcement device can be realized by the prior art. As a preferred mode, the multi-sensory stimulation intervention reinforcement device of the embodiment comprises the following components:

[0145] 1. VR visual stimulation device: using VR, the visual stimulation, such as teaching film, emotional video, etc. that has been seen in the waking time, is played to the sleeper under the premise of not affecting sleep, so as to achieve the effect of enhancing related memory.

[0146] 2. Auditory stimulation device (which can be an external speaker or an earphone player): used to provide soothing, pleasant or stimulating music, sound or language to the user. The device selects audio content of different types, styles, rhythms and volumes.

[0156] 1. Selection of opportunity (sleep stage):

[0157] Human sleep can be divided into two parts: rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep.

[0158] In combination with the above theory, it is a better choice to regulate the sleep and memory of the patient during the rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, or a more significant treatment effect will be achieved. In this embodiment, the sleep emotion multi-module monitoring device can determine when the patient enters the rapid eye movement sleep stage, so that the VR multi-sensory stimulation is performed by the multi-sensory stimulation intervention reinforcement device in this stage.

[0159] 2. Selection of parameters of the multi-sensory stimulation intervention reinforcement module:

[0160] The specific stimulation parameters will be determined according to the determination result of the data discrimination and decision-making device, and the best stimulation mode and parameters are sought to bring better treatment effect to the patient.

[0161] The parameter selection range of various stimulation modes is as follows:

[0162] Tactile stimulation: hand massage: 0.5-2 times / S, force: gentle;

[0163] Foot massage: 0.5-2 times / S, force: gentle to moderately strong;

[0164] Auditory stimulation: sound intensity: 20-40 decibels, sound quality: beautiful and soft melody;

[0165] Olfactory stimulation: comfortable and pleasant smell, such as light and elegant flower fragrance, sweet fruit fragrance, and fresh grass fragrance;

[0166] Indoor environment temperature: 18-25 degrees Celsius;

[0168] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the present application provides a sleep cabin device which can monitor the sleep sign data of the subject in the sleep process in real time, and determine the emotion of the subject in the sleep process, the stimulation model and the stimulation parameters needed to be received, and then provide appropriate stimulation in the sleep process of the subject. The present application can regulate the emotion memory in sleep of the depression patients (which can also be used for ordinary people and people with sleep disorders), eliminate negative memory, enhance positive memory, improve sleep, adjust emotion, relieve depression symptoms, and improve life quality, which has good application prospect.
