Comparison analysis between standard polysomnographic data and in-ear-EEG signals: A preliminary study

Study Objectives: Polysomnography (PSG) currently serves as the benchmark for evaluating sleep disorders. Its discomfort, impracticality for home-use, and introduction of bias in sleep quality assessment necessitate the exploration of less invasive, cost-effective, and portable alternatives. One promising contender is the in-ear-EEG sensor, which offers advantages in terms of comfort, fixed electrode positions, resistance to electromagnetic interference, and user-friendliness. This study aims to establish a methodology to assess the similarity between the in-ear-EEG signal and standard PSG.
Methods: We assess …
