A Quantitative Approach to the Biochronicity of Circadian Rhythm, Sleep, and Neurobehavioral Performance

Abstract

Analyze mathematical models that include both circadian and sleep processes for key properties,such as the stability of periodic solutions. Periodic solutions of such models correspond to stable entrainment of joint circadian-sleep-lighting processes. 2. Develop optimal algorithms for entrainment, such as entrainment in minimal time. 3. Develop optimal strategies for maximizing mental alertness during critical missions. The subjects of the optimal strategies include scheduling of sleep, lighting, and tasks. 4. Developing state estimation algorithms that will allow for the implementation of the optimal strategies above in a closed-loop, using biometric data from the mission performers. This will also enable us to adapt and personalize the mathematical model during runtime.
