New OSF foundation models advance sleep physiology research

Researchers have introduced OSF, a new family of foundation models for sleep physiology, designed to address the heterogeneity in polysomnography data. Through extensive pre-training on a large corpus of sleep recordings and the development of the SleepBench benchmark, they identified key factors for generalizable sleep models, including channel-invariant feature learning and scaling data mixture. OSF models achieve state-of-the-art performance on various sleep and disease prediction tasks, demonstrating improved sample efficiency and cross-dataset scaling. AI

IMPACT These models could improve the accuracy and generalizability of sleep disorder diagnosis and analysis.

    OSF: On Pre-training and Scaling of Sleep Foundation Models

    arXiv:2603.00190v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Polysomnography (PSG) provides the gold standard for sleep assessment but suffers from substantial heterogeneity across recording devices and cohorts. There have been growing efforts to build general-purpose foundation mod…
