Abstract

Intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) is an invasive technique used to explore the cortical activity of the brain. In this letter, we focused on features of iEEG signals recorded during wakefulness and non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep in order to find differences between the two states, respectively. We preliminary screened the data using standard deviation analysis (STD). Then, we compared and combined STD values with coefficients from wavelet decomposition (Daubechies mother wavelet of order 4). Resulting parameters were classified using an artificial neural network. STD analysis underlined two brain areas [superior temporal sulcus (STS) and intraparietal-sulcus and parietal transverse (IPS)] with different electrical activity in the two states.STDvalues of STS and IPS channels were highly correlated in time;therefore, only STSwas then used further in the features extraction analysis. Approximation and detail coefficients from Daubechies decomposition were used alone or in combination with the STD value. The overall accuracy of the pattern recognition was higher (98.57%), when features from different methods were used in combination. Our test was able to automatically recognize wake or NREM sleep status with very good discrimination performances using one single iEEG electrode.
