A Novel 3-Layer Soft Computing Integrated Technique ANFUS Based On Symptomatic Guidelines For Early Detection Of Sleep Disorders

Abstract

Sleep assumes an indispensable part in life of human being to be casual and stress free from consistent day errands. However, some time, sleep gets disturbed by unordinary exercises and practices, because of which numerous sleep disorders emerge like Sleep Apnea, Insomnia, Parasomnia and Snoring. The different applications have been created in artificial intelligence domain for the finding of gawky practices which begins the interference in sleep nearby the backing of further new sleep disorders. This paper is based on a novel 3-layer soft computing method ANFUS which has been formulated for an early detection of the above said sleep disorders. In this methodology, artificial neural network (ANN) and fuzzy C-means (FCM) are integrated with support vector machine-one versus all (SVM-OVA). At layer-1, ANN is used to discover the relationship between collected patient records and disability factors of sleep disorders and the outcome is passed to FCM at layer-2 to define the boundaries of all overlapped disability factors. The result provided by FCM is utilized by SVM-OVA present at layer-3 to classify the sleep disorders. The outcome demonstrates that ANFUS integrated techniques provide an early detection of sleep disorders to help the patients to upgrade themselves from the various bad effects arising due to disrupted sleep, also known as sleep disorders.

INTRODUCTION "THE BEST WAY TO ESCAPE FROM REALITY IS TO SLEEP, THE BEST WAY TO IMAGINE SOMETHING IS TO SLEEP, AND THE BEST WAY TO WAKE UP IS TO SLEEP" Dalai Lama i.e., One of the famous head monks of Gelug School says that "Sleep is the best meditation" that is also a demand of every individual to cover up them to start the regular activities. It is a state where a person has lost its total consideration against the outer environment [3]. It is a stage, where all muscles are in calm state along with other sensual movements. An individual moves through many phases/stages at the time of its sleeping hours such as Wake, Non-Rapid Eye Movement (NREM) and Rapid Eye Movement (REM). On the other hand, at some point this sleep is hindered because of some humiliating practices, mental conditions related with it, otherwise called sleep disorders that further chop down the nature of sleep including dozing hours. The greater part of the parents is new to the characteristic of sleep disorders exasperating a ton of youngsters at the worldwide level. Sometime parents are unable to discriminate the sleeping arrangements of their children which become the major cause of suffering children from many side effects. It is finished up by the Toronto Star that the quantity of kids having lower evaluations in study are 6 to 9 times more noteworthy than others which are experiencing some sort of problems related to sleep [4]. Many intelligent techniques and systems have been adopted by researchers to detect sleep and the sleeping patterns including sleep disorders linked with them which produces some kind of disturbances...
