Abstract-In previous work, respiratory spectral features have been successfully used for sleep/wake detection. They are usually extracted from several frequency bands. However, these traditional bands with fixed frequency boundaries might not be the most appropriate to optimize the sleep and wake separation. This is caused by the between-subject variability in physiology, or more specifically, in respiration during sleep. Since the optimal boundaries may relate to mean respiratory frequency over the entire night. Therefore, we propose to adapt these boundaries for each subject in terms of his/her mean respiratory frequency. The adaptive boundaries were considered as those being able to maximize the separation between sleep and wake states by means of their mean power spectral density (PSD) curves overnight. Linear regression models were used to address the association between the adaptive boundaries and mean respiratory frequency based on training data. This was then in turn used to estimate the adaptive boundaries of each test subject. Experiments were c...
