Improved GP algorithm for the analysis of sleep stages based on grey model


Yabing Li, Songyun Xie*, Jin Zhao, Chang Liu, Xinzhou Xie

 
ABSTRACT:     Correlation dimension analysis of EEG signals is widely used to access sleep stages. However, the standard Grassberger-Procaccia (GP) algorithm used to calculate the correlation dimension is very time consuming. To overcome this problem, an algorithm that combines the grey model and GP algorithm (GM-GP) is proposed. The results show that the correlation dimensions computed from GP and GM-GP are highly correlated, and the significance between the CDs in different stages of GM-GP is similar to GP. Furthermore, the computation time of the proposed method is at most 5% of that of the GP. The proposed algorithm is suitable for the real-time monitoring of sleep stages, which can provide a deeper understanding of brain function.
