Abstract

Most sleep management systems lack reliable assessment of sleep quality and receive single information source only. In this paper, we proposed a sleep quality assessment mechanism based on the physiological sleep pattern with scenarios of multiple data sources. This mechanism provides an intuitive personalized sleep quotient which encourages users to have long-term usage of sleep management service. It further helps users to understand their sleep patterns and adjust sleep habits. In addition, sleep medical professionals can strengthen the diagnostic judgment with this assessment mechanism.
