Determination of Cole parameters in multiple frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis using only the measurement of impedances.

abstract：:Polysomnography (PSG) has been extensively studied for sleep staging, where sleep stages are usually classified as wake, rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep, or non-REM (NREM) sleep (including light and deep sleep). Respiratory information has been proven to correlate with autonomic nervous activity that is related to slee...
