Sleep disturbances and sleep disorders often results in a wide range of comorbid conditions, predominantly of the cardiovascular/respiratory, endocrine/metabolic, and neuropsychiatric systems.

The objective of this project is to develop and evaluate models for the detection and classification of sleep disorders using physiological data collected by 1)specilised instrumentation at hospitals and 2) wearable devices at patients home.

The development of these models involves:

-Exploration and understanding of the different channels of signal data collected by the instruments

-Understanding the clinical practices for scoring the physiological data

-Data cleaning and data-preprocessing in a suitable format for model training

-Engineering of time-domain and frequency-domain features

-Training and optimizing machine learning and deep learning models

-Post-processing of model outputs

-Understanding machine learning and clinical metrics for model evaluation

Note: The scope of the project may change depending on company priorities. In addition, the student may be asked to contribute and support additional ongoing projects and duties on a on demand basis.
