The invention includes a method and system for providing an Index representing the alertness state of an individual based at least in part on EEG signals obtained from the individual. In at least one embodiment, the EEG signals are divided into frequency bands and a total amplitude of the power is determined. Based on the proportion of the high frequency band compared to the proportion of the low frequency band, an Index is determined that is indicative of an individual's ability to perform a cognitive task.

Alertness/drowsiness and cognitive capacity index

An apparatus and a method for predicting cognitive performance of an individual based on factors including preferably sleep history and the time of day. The method facilitates the creation of predicted cognitive performance curves that allow an individual to set his/her sleep times to produce higher levels of cognitive performance. The method also facilitates the reconstruction of past cognitive performance levels based on sleep history.

Method and system for predicting human cognitive performance

A system and a method for providing a determination of predicted cognitive performance of an individual preferably based on the time of day and on factors including sleep history based on activity data from an actigraph. The system and the method provide a numerical representation of the predicted cognitive performance. Both may be used to optimize the work schedule of the actigraph wearer to maximize the cognitive capacity during working hours.
