Polysomnography provides a comprehensive recording of the major physiological changes associated with sleep and is hence the gold standard for modern sleep analysis, both in research and clinical settings. Novel functionalities will continue to be added and open-science community efforts are expected to enhance the capacities of this module. Sleep is freely available ( ) and comes with sample datasets and an extensive documentation. As a result, it is capable of efficiently handling and displaying large sleep datasets. Most importantly, Sleep is built on top of the VisPy library, which provides GPU-based fast and high-level visualization. The software package supports loading and reading raw EEG data from standard file formats such as European Data Format, in addition to a range of commercial data formats. Among its most prominent features are: (1) Dynamic display of polysomnographic data, spectrogram, hypnogram and topographic maps with several customizable parameters, (2) Implementation of several automatic detection of sleep features such as spindles, K-complexes, slow waves, and rapid eye movements (REM), (3) Implementation of practical signal processing tools such as re-referencing or filtering, and (4) Display of main descriptive statistics including publication-ready tables and figures. We introduce Sleep, a new Python open-source graphical user interface (GUI) dedicated to visualization, scoring and analyses of sleep data. 6Center for Advanced Research in Sleep Medicine, Hôpital du Sacré-Coeur de Montréal, Montreal, QC, Canada.5Blue Brain Project, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Geneva, Switzerland.4Department of Neurology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States.3Lyon Neuroscience Research Center, Brain Dynamics and Cognition team, INSERM UMRS 1028, CNRS UMR 5292, Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1, Université de Lyon, Lyon, France.2Inter-University Laboratory of Human Movement Biology, Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1, Université de Lyon, Lyon, France.1Département de Psychologie, Université de Montréal, Montreal, QC, Canada.Etienne Combrisson 1,2 * †, Raphael Vallat 3 * †, Jean-Baptiste Eichenlaub 4, Christian O'Reilly 5, Tarek Lajnef 1,6, Aymeric Guillot 2, Perrine M.
