Looking forward to an update of /physionet_databases/cinc2018.py /

Recently I tried to read this dataset but failed, fortunately I found your project but losing the "load_data()" func, hoping your update, thanks!

So you are doing research on sleep analysis using ECG signals? I spent quite a lot of time on this topic some time ago, but not using CinC2018 data. Instead I used the dataset SHHS. Currently I'm working on CinC2021, the unofficial phase. Maybe some time later I would update the CinC2018 reader.

Yes, I'm doing some research on sleep apnea analysis with ECG signals. At present, I have run my model with Apnea-ECG and UCDDB datasets(thks for your resampled data), but these two datasets seem to be collected from different leads of ECG. I want to confirm whether the signals of different leads have effect on the apnea detection results. I am looking for another dataset to verify this idea, but it seems that there are not many ECG signal datasets with apnea annotations. I just found cinc2018, so that is the issue, so do you know some more datasets with apnea annotations? Would be much appreciated to receive your reply!

Your research problem is quite interesting. As far as I know, despite the physionet datasets you mentioned, the NSRR datasets might have the annotations you need. This organization focuses on the study of sleep. However, you have to make requestment for almost all the datasets they provide.

I now remember that I did use CinC2018 data, along with SHHS. These data are stored in the institute I left a few month ago. I tried to download the dataset using the torrent file provided by Physionet, but failed.... I'll try downloading it from GCP using gsutil later some time.

I tried to download cinc2018, failed either, it's too big that I only got part of the dataset, so I gave up using it. With your guidance, I found SHHS and MESA dataset from NSSR might help, I'm still having a hard time tring to understand and extract the apnea information and annotations from it. Anyway, thanks for your help!
