Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and sleep medicine represents one of the most promising frontiers in neuroscience and clinical practice. Recent breakthroughs have demonstrated that sleep patterns and characteristics serve as powerful biomarkers for various physical and mental health conditions, enabling early detection and intervention in diseases ranging from cardiovascular disorders to neurodegenerative conditions. This Special Issue aims to showcase cutting-edge research leveraging AI technologies to advance our understanding and treatment of sleep disorders, improve diagnostic accuracy, and develop personalized interventions.
We seek original research articles, reviews, and perspective pieces that explore innovative applications of AI in sleep medicine, including but not limited to automated sleep staging, sleep disorder diagnosis, prediction of treatment outcomes, real-world monitoring solutions, and sleep-based health risk assessment. This Special Issue welcomes work spanning the full spectrum from basic sleep science to clinical applications, with emphasis on validated approaches that demonstrate potential for practical implementation in clinical settings and the use of sleep-related data for early disease detection and health outcome prediction.
