Abstract :
Summary form only given. The relationship between sleep stages and heart rate variability (HRV) is investigated. A novel method to deduce the sleep stages by the analysis of HRV with hidden Markov models (HMM) is presented. Our method provides a simple means to evaluate the sleep situation, which is useful in many applications.
