[Study of fuzzy analytical system for physiological signals during sleep]

A new approach to sleep analysis based on fuzzy prediction theory is described. This article gives a general introduction to detection and processing of biologic signals with LabVIEW software, and the application of the designed fuzzy measurement system in fuzzy prediction analysis of the physiological signals recorded during sleep. The results of trials of the fuzzy prediction analysis demonstrated the reliability of this method. LabVIEW-based fuzzy prediction analysis can be helpful for early diagnosis, monitoring and prognostic assessment of some diseases, and may be valuable in the analysis of the physiologic signals of patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) during sleep.
