Dyn-PSG offers notable advantages over existing methods in both privacy and performance:
Privacy
- Differential Privacy (DP): Utilizes a robust mathematical framework rooted in cryptography to ensure data privacy07.
- User Anonymity: Protects individual data points, making it difficult to trace back to specific users.
Performance
- Synchronization Accuracy: Addresses PSG-device synchronization issues, crucial for accurate epoch-by-epoch (EBE) analysis136.
- Statistical Reliability: Employs within-subject tests (e1.g., t-tests, ANOVAs) to compare PSG and device outcomes, ensuring reliable data interpretation1.
- Scalability: Potentially extends detection capabilities to larger datasets, overcoming limitations of smaller, private datasets2.
Overall, Dyn-PSG enhances both the privacy and performance of sleep monitoring systems017.
