Abstract
A behavioral state of a brain is classified by automatically selecting one or more sensors based on the signals received from each sensor and one or more selection criteria using one or more processors, calculating at least one measured value from the signal(s) of the selected sensor(s), classifying the behavioral state as: (a) an awake state whenever the measured value(s) for the selected sensor(s) is lower than a first threshold value, (b) a sleep state (N2) whenever the measured value(s) for the selected sensor(s) is equal to or greater than the first threshold value and the measured value(s) is not greater than a second threshold value, or (c) a slow wave sleep state (N3) whenever the measured value(s) from the selected sensor(s) is greater than the first threshold value and the measured value(s) is greater than the second threshold value, and providing a notification of the classified behavioral state.
