Abstract

Current sleep medicine relies on the supervised analysis of polysomnographic recordings, which comprise amongst others electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyogram (EMG), and electrooculogram (EOG) signals. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) provide an interesting framework for automated sleep classification, however, the lack of interpretability of its results has hampered CNN's further use in medicine. In this study, we train a CNN using as input Continuous Wavelet transformed EEG, EOG and EMG recordings from a publicly available dataset. The network achieved a 10-fold cross-validation Cohen's Kappa score of $\kappa = 0.71 \pm 0.01$. Further, we provide insights on how this network classifies individual epochs of sleep using Guided Gradient-weighted Class Activation Maps (Guided Grad-CAM). The proposed approach is able to produce fine-grained activation maps on time-frequency domain for each signal providing a useful tool for identifying relevant features in CNNs.
