Abstract
An automated system has been developed to allow for long-term quantitative sleep studies. A homeostatic mechanism that operates at very a short time scales, and participates in the timing of the triggering of a new REM sleep episode is described. Intermittent specific REM sleep deprivation of duration comparable to the basal REM cycle has been performed. A neural network based approach is proposed as a predictive model of state probability.
