Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with various health complications, and snoring is a prominent characteristic of this disorder. Therefore, the exploration of a concise and effective method for detecting snoring has consistently been a crucial aspect of sleep medicine. As the easily accessible data, the identification of snoring through sound analysis offers a more convenient and straightforward method. The objective of this study was to develop a convolutional neural network (CNN) for classifying snoring and non-snoring events based on audio. This study utilized Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) as a method for extracting features during the preprocessing of raw data. In order to extract multi-scale features from the frequency domain of sound sources, this study proposes the utilization of a multi-branch convolutional neural network (MBCNN) for the purpose of classification. The network utilized asymmetric convolutional kernels to acquire additional information, while the adoption of one-hot encoding labels aimed to mitigate the impact of labels. The experiment tested the network's performance by utilizing a publicly available dataset consisting of 1,000 sound samples. The test results indicate that the MBCNN achieved a snoring detection accuracy of 99.5%. The integration of multi-scale features and the implementation of MBCNN, based on audio data, have demonstrated a substantial improvement in the performance of snoring classification.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
