NAPS model fuses heterogeneous physiological signals using attention for sleep staging

Researchers have developed NAPS, a novel neural module designed to fuse heterogeneous physiological signals for more robust machine learning representations. This module employs a tri-axial attention mechanism and dimension-adaptive training to effectively manage varying sensor configurations and data quality. NAPS has demonstrated state-of-the-art generalization capabilities in automatic sleep staging from polysomnography, outperforming existing methods by adaptively weighting different signal sources.

    NAPS: Attention-Based Fusion of Heterogeneous Physiological Signals

    arXiv:2511.03488v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Physiological signals are inherently heterogeneous: they are collected under diverse acquisition setups, differ in the number and type of modalities and channels, varying in quality, reliability, and relevance across tasks. This…
