However, sleep scoring is a time-consuming tedious labor. Very few studies discuss the 5-stage (wake/NREM1/NREM2/transition sleep/REM) automatic fine analysis of wake–sleep stages in rodent models. The present study aimed to develop and validate an automatic rule-based classification of 5-stage wake–sleep pattern in acid-induced widespread hyperalgesia model of the rat.
