An Agentic Just-in-Time Adaptive Intervention System for Personalized Sleep Support: Proof-of-Concept Study with N of 1 Data

The study presents a proof‑of‑concept just‑in‑time adaptive intervention (JITAI) for sleep support that employs an AI agent to analyze 30 days of personal sleep and behavioral data, such as physical activity, smartphone use, and bedtime routines. The agent, running on Home Assistant, reviews the data, evaluates existing reminders, adapts interventions, and records decisions for human review, while limiting reminders to no more than three per day. Initial runs confirmed technical feasibility, successfully completing data review and intervention decisions and saving decision records for future analysis.

LightSleepX: A Lightweight, Inception-Based Dual-Modal Network for Sleep Staging

LightSleepX is a lightweight, inception‑based dual‑modal network designed for sleep staging in resource‑constrained environments. It uses depthwise separable convolutions, multi‑scale enhanced attention for efficient EEG/EOG feature extraction, and a Mamba encoder for long‑range temporal modeling. On public benchmarks, it achieves 85.9% accuracy on Sleep‑EDF‑20 and 81.8% on ISRUC‑S3 with only 0.049M parameters and 195.9 MFLOPs.

WearableQA: A Benchmark for Health Reasoning over Real-World Wearable Data

WearableQA is a new benchmark that tests AI systems on health reasoning using real-world wearable data from 200 users, each with up to 500 days of daily measurements. It contains 4,084 ten‑option multiple‑choice questions derived from wearable time series, blood biomarkers, and demographics, and is organized into 16 question types that distinguish data‑driven computation from physiological interpretation and single‑signal from cross‑signal reasoning. Evaluation of 14 large language models shows wide performance gaps, indicating that the benchmark remains challenging and useful for diagnosing model capabilities.
