Abstract
The present disclosure pertains to a system configured to facilitate prediction of a sleep stage and intervention preparation in advance of the sleep stage's occurrence. The system comprises sensors configured to be placed on a subject and to generate output signals conveying information related to brain activity of the subject; and processors configured to: determine a sample representing the output signals with respect to a first time period of a sleep session; provide the sample to a prediction model at a first time of the sleep session to predict a sleep stage of the subject occurring around a second time; determine intervention information based on the prediction of the sleep stage, the intervention information indicating one or more stimulator parameters related to periheral stimulation; and cause one or more stimulators to provide the intervention to the subject around the second time of the sleep session.
