In six patients, window-end Hilbert estimation outperformed AR(20) forecasting for NREM slow-oscillation phase

This pilot compared two causal estimators of the 0.5–2 Hz NREM slow oscillation (SO) phase in mesial-temporal depth iEEG from six patients with epilepsy. It analyzed 302 bipolar channels from 39–50 s at the start of one 5-min interval per patient in OpenNeuro ds003498 v1.0.1. Signals were block-mean decimated from 2000 to 100 Hz. Each estimator used a 4-s past-data window: E1 read the Hilbert phase at the window end; E2 fit an AR(20) model and forecast 0.5 s ahead. The reference was the zero-phase estimate on the full segment. At high-SO-amplitude samples, E2 had larger median absolute phase error than E1 in all six patients (mean difference +30.8°, range +24.5° to +34.7°; exact two-sided sign-flip p = 0.031). E1 median error was 39–42° and hit rate within 45° was 0.64–0.70 (chance 0.25); its phase lead was +10° to +17°. Predicting E2 an additional 100 ms ahead raised error to 73–82°. Higher SO relative power was associated with smaller error for both estimators. These findings apply to the tested AR configuration, not AR forecasting in general. The pilot used short segments, did not verify sleep stage sample by sample, and used a filtered reference rather than an independent measure of the up-state; bipolar up-state polarity was unknown. Epileptic channels were retained and interictal spikes were not analyzed.
