Unveil sleep spindles with concentration of frequency and time (ConceFT)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Objective. Sleep spindles contain crucial brain dynamics information. We introduce the novel non-linear time-frequency (TF) analysis tool ‘Concentration of Frequency and Time’ (ConceFT) to create an interpretable automated algorithm for sleep spindle annotation in EEG data and to measure spindle instantaneous frequencies (IFs). Approach. ConceFT effectively reduces stochastic EEG influence, enhancing spindle visibility in the TF representation. Our automated spindle detection algorithm, ConceFT-Spindle (ConceFT-S), is compared to A7 (non-deep learning) and SUMO (deep learning) using Dream and Montreal Archive of Sleep Studies (MASS) benchmark databases. We also quantify spindle IF dynamics. Main results. ConceFT-S achieves F1 scores of 0.765 in Dream and 0.791 in MASS, which surpass A7 and SUMO. We reveal that spindle IF is generally nonlinear. Significance. ConceFT offers an accurate, interpretable EEG-based sleep spindle detection algorithm and enables spindle IF quantification.

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.
