Mammalian Sleep Dynamics: How Diverse Features Arise from a Common Physiological Framework
Figure 3
Comparison of experimental data to model output.
Time series for wake vs. sleep state are shown for three species, comparing the model to experimental data. Human: (A) data from [32], (B) model (,
h). Elephant: (C) data from [22], (D) model (
,
h). Opossum: (E) data from [27], (F) model (
,
h). Noise is added to the model to make sleep patterns less regular (see Methods for numerical details).
