<br/><br/> Sleep disorders are usually diagnosed based on clinical sleep assessment techniques . Various attempts were made to automate sleep assessment in the motivation of eliminating manual sleep assessment drawbacks and exploring new quantitative sleep measures . The purpose of this study is to combine detrended fluctuation analysis features and spectral features of single electroencephalograph (EEG) channel to build a hybrid automated sleep staging system based on decision tree and multi- layer perceptron prediction engine models
