(NIBIB Trailblazer Award for New and Early Stage Investigators)
Funding agency: National Institutes of Health Role: PI
Period: 09/01/2022-06/30/2025
Co-PIs: Drs. Feng Liu (Stevens Institute of Technology) and Changyue Song
The goal of this research is to create a domain knowledge-informed framework to enable machine learning with limited data availability to generate comprehensive sleep profile learning and monitoring. The technical objective of the proposed study is to construct weakly supervised deep learning models for real-time sleep event detection based on noisy physiological signals with limited annotations.
