AnySleep: a channel-agnostic deep learning system for high-resolution sleep staging in multi-center cohorts
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Sleep is essential for health, yet studying its dynamics requires manual sleep staging, a labor-intensive step in research and clinical care. Across centers, polysomnography (PSG) recordings are traditionally scored in 30-s epochs for pragmatic, not physiological, reasons and vary in electrode count, montage, and subject characteristics. These constraints challenge harmonized multi-center studies and the discovery of robust biomarkers on shorter timescales. We present AnySleep, a deep neural network that scores sleep from any electroencephalography (EEG) or electrooculography (EOG) data at adjustable temporal resolutions. We trained and validated the model on over 20,000 overnight recordings (> 200,000 hours of EEG and EOG) from 28 datasets across multiple clinics to promote robust generalization across sites. The model attains state-of-the-art performance and surpasses or equals established baselines at 30-s epochs. Performance improves with more channels, yet remains strong when EOG is absent or only EOG or single EEG derivations (frontal, central, or occipital) are available. On sub-30-s timescales, the model captures short wake intrusions consistent with arousals and improves prediction of pathophysiological conditions (obstructive sleep apnea, narcolepsy type 1, insomnia) over 30-s scoring. We make the model publicly available to facilitate large-scale studies with heterogeneous electrode setups and accelerate biomarker discovery in 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.
