Abstract
Poor sleep quality can cause diverse deficiencies in mental and physical health. Several information and communication technologies (ICT) systems have been developed to improve sleep quality, most of which monitor patterns in sleep epochs to determine the quality of sleep. We propose a personal ICT ecosystem (PICTE) to address the same problem through a different approach. Our work considers the integration of technology (hardware and software) to obtain data related to sleep hygiene habits. The PICTE processes these data through an inference model based on a machine learning algorithm. Besides, a persuasive system sends advice/reward messages to users, to persuade them to change their habits to improve sleep quality.
