The invention belongs to the technical field of sleep
respiratory disease detection, and relates to a
sleep apnea identification method based on a
hybrid neural network, which comprises the following steps of: sensing human sleep in a
bed surrounding environment by using a
millimeter wave radar, and positioning a
thoracic cavity position by adopting spatial two-
dimensional analysis; the problem that interference exists in
radar sign
signal extraction of different targets at the same distance is solved. And a
respiration signal Shannon entropy is constructed as an iterative index of the
whale optimization
algorithm, and the index is minimized to realize iterative optimization of variational mode extraction parameters, so that different
respiration states are matched with different parameters, and thus a
dominant frequency narrowband respiration signal is accurately extracted. A
breathing time-frequency
energy diagram obtained by
data processing is used as input, and a CNN network and a bidirectional long-short-
term memory module are used together to construct a
feature extraction module, so that the method can recognize the change trend of frequency along with time, capture more comprehensive features, and recognize target
sleep apnea more accurately. In addition, the
hybrid network enables accurate classification of unmanned scenarios,
apnea,
hypopnea, and normal respiration.
