Any occupation which involves critical decision making in real-time requires attention and
concentration. When repetitive and expanded working periods are encountered, it can result …

A microsleep is a brief lapse in performance due to an involuntary sleep-related loss of
consciousness. These episodes are of particular importance in occupations requiring …

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a reliable method for identifying the onset of sleepiness
behind the wheel. Using EEG technology for driving fatigue detection still presents …

A microsleep (MS) is a complete lapse of responsiveness due to an episode of brief sleep (≲
15 s) with eyes partially or completely closed. MSs are highly correlated with the risk of car …

A microsleep is a brief and involuntary sleep-related loss of consciousness of up to 15 s
during an active and attention-demanding task. Such episodes of unresponsiveness are of …

The performance of a microsleep detection system was calculated in terms of its ability to
detect the behavioural microsleep state (1-s epochs) from spectral features derived from 16 …

Background Electroencephalography (EEG) monitors brain activity during sleep and is used
to identify sleep disorders. In sleep medicine, clinicians interpret raw EEG signals in so …

Microsleeps are brief and involuntary instances of complete loss of sleep-related
consciousness. We present a novel approach of creating overlapping clusters of subjects …

Brief fragments of sleep shorter than 15 s are defined as microsleep episodes (MSEs), often
subjectively perceived as sleepiness. Their main characteristic is a slowing in frequency in …

Brief episodes of momentarily falling asleep-microsleeps-can have fatal consequences,
especially in the transportation sector. In this study, the EEG data of eight subjects, while …
