Abstract
Background: Rapid eye movement sleep (REM) is divided into phasic and tonic microstates. Phasic REM is defined by presence of REMs with reportedly greater antiepileptic effect. We assessed whether quantitative EEG (QEEG) software can detect REM microstates. Methods: We applied artifact reduction and detection trends from QEEG software (Persyst 14) on 18 patients undergoing 30 day-night high density EEG recordings in the epilepsy monitoring unit. We identified phasic REM as 10-second epochs of previously human-scored REM that demonstrated presence of either vertical or horizontal eye movements on the QEEG artifact detection panel. Remaining epochs were identified as tonic REM. Results: Out of 91.2 average minutes of REM (range 24.5-167.5) per recording, a mean of 2.5% (range 0-18.9%) demonstrated eye movements intensive enough for QEEG artifact detection to be identified as phasic REM. On average, only 40% (range 0-500%) of eye movements per recording was flagged as vertical. Conclusions: These findings provide proof-of-concept that QEEG can automatically assess REM microstructure by readily detecting phasic and tonic REM. These findings also confirm that most REMs are horizontal. Having the ability to easily and automatically detect phasic versus tonic REM can help further future studies examining the antiepileptic effect of REM sleep.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
