The resulting prediction capabilities are evaluated and compared on a heterogeneous collection of six public sleep staging datasets. Validation is carried out in the context of independent local and external dataset generalization scenarios.<h4>Results</h4>Best results were achieved using the CNN_LSTM_5 neural network variant. Average prediction capabilities on independent local testing sets achieved 0.80 kappa score. When individual local models predict data from external datasets, average kappa score decreases to 0.54. Using the proposed ensemble-based approach, average kappa performance on the external dataset prediction scenario increases to 0.62.

The proposed ensemble-based approach enables flexible and scalable design, allowing dynamic integration of local models into the final ensemble, preserving data locality, and increasing generalization capabilities of the resulting system at the same time.Diego Alvarez-EstevezRoselyne M RijsmanPublic Library of Science (PLoS)articleMedicineRScienceQENPLoS ONE, Vol 16, Iss 8, p e0256111 (2021) |
