This paper focuses on distinctive changes of not only the heart rate but also the body movement in REM stage (i.e., light sleep) and Non-REM stage (i.e., deep sleep) and improves our sleep estimation method by employing the feature of such distinctive changes. In particular, the heart rate increases irregularly in REM stage, while the heart rate decreases in Non-REM stage. The body moves intensively in REM stage, while the body does not frequently move in Non-REM stage. Using such distinctive changes, we propose a new fitness function which determines the REM/Non-REM stage and introduce it into for our sleep estimation method based on Genetic Algorithms (GAs), which evolve the sleep stage for each person according to the fitness. To investigate an effectiveness of a new fitness function, we compare the estimated sleep stages of our method employing the proposed fitness function with that of Watanabe’s method as the conventional method. The experimental results suggest that our method employing the proposed fitness function has a capability to estimate the sleep stage accurately than Watanabe’s method without connecting any devices.
